That’s right. Oh come on! It’s an iPhone 3GS! Okay, so maybe I’m a tad bit overexcited. But omg!!!

What’s gotten me so excited is that they’re not giving away one iPhone 3GS and getting done with it.

Squarespace is giving away one iPhone 3GS everyday for 30 days!

You hear that? That’s 30 opportunities for everyone to win. Didn’t win today? No problem, try again tomorrow.

Okay, I don’t usually fly off the handle over give aways and technology but I’d been eyeing a Macbook for a while and then I watched the keynote via live streaming and Apple reduced the price of a Macbook Pro. So while I was contemplating buying a Macbook Pro instead of a plain Macbook – I see this contest and suddenly I’m thinking…’I have a chance to get an iPhone 3GS as well as buying a Macbook Pro!’

In other words, I’ve OD’d on Apple products – and as yet, I don’t own a single Apple product.

So back to the contest. To enter it, you simply have to send a tweet with the ’squarespace’ as your hashtag. For example,

Omg! @squarespace is giving away an iPhone 3GS everyday for 30 days!!! #squarespace.

Tadaa. You’ve entered the competition. The winner is picked randomly at 5 pm EDT everyday till July 7th.

The good part is that you can enter as many times as you like. The slightly cumbersome part is that you have to enter everyday to be eligible for that day’s draw.

They’ve given away three iPhones. There are still 27 more to go. That means we all have 27 days to tweet with the hashtag #squarespace and enter the contest to win an iPhone.

Stop rolling your eyes at me guys. Go see the new iPhone 3GS specs. You’re gonna drool…

And it’s not like you won’t be jumping on your couch, bed and everywhere else if you win. 

P.S: Squarespace is a publishing platform. Guess that makes them a WordPress competitor huh? 

P.P.S: Don’t forget to tell me if you win. Good luck!

Sometimes you discover really cool stuff. Wordle can be a great way to promote your blog. You can enter a Url and get a word cloud. Mine looked like the one below. Pretty cool I must say! There are also plenty of editing option. You can change the color scheme, language, chose which words to omit and if you don’t like the placing of words, you can re-arrange the lay out as well.

When I entered the URL for The Base, this is what it came up with.

Cool huh? Then I decided to play with the name of my blog i.e “The Writing Base”. This is what I ended up saving.

The last one has to be my favourite. Of course, there are no option to place certain colors on certain words. Else the two middle ones would have had different colors on the words.

You can put up these images in other blogs (link them) or post them up a on social networking sites. This could be great if you’re launching a blog and spreading the word about it. For e.g if you make a facebook event out of it, you can use these images as a picture etc.

And now that I’ve wasted so much time on Wordle, it’s time to get back to work.

Has it ever happened to you? Have you found something cool on the net that’s sucked the time out of your workday?
