BenSpark’s Refreshing Soda-Club Contest

I am running a contest over at The BenSpark. This is my first contest and I am working closely with a company that I have been a supporter of, I own the product, love it and want to share it with my readers. The company is Soda-Club and the product is a Soda-Club Home Soda Maker which will be the first prize to the winner. There are great second and third prizes as well. To learn more about how you can participate in this contest and win your own Soda-Club Home Soda Maker come to Benspark’s Refreshing Soda-Club Contest.

Web 2.0: UStream

I just checked out UStream.tv. It is a brand new site that allows you to stream video live and interact with people live. All you need to get started is a webcam. I signed on and signed up to find that Cali Lewis of GeekBrief.tv was doing a live E-mail answering stream. How cool is that? I got in on the last 2 minutes so that stunk but she will be on again. I have to get caught up enough so I am on track with everyone else when Cali posts new stuff. I’m a couple of episodes behind.

Anyway UStream.tv is a very easy site to sign up with. You can create a user profile and jump onto streams that are in progress. You can start your own streams. I can see this as a really fun thing for bloggers to do to enhance their blogs. I think that I may do one sometime from the road. I’ll let everyone know when I plan on doing it. My username is BenSpark so you can add me to your UStream.tv friends when you sign up.

I also would like to mention that Ashley from PPP writes the PPP blog on MySpace and gave me a shout out for recommending GeekBrief.tv. Also I nominated Cali for some Blogger’s Choice awards, although it doesn’t list me as the nominator but I was the first to vote in three categories.
