Follow Xpenser (xpn) on Twitter, Win An iPod Shuffle
Comments(2)
As you may know we’ve run into a Twitter limit on how many accounts we can allow into Xpenser. Asking nicely worked, and you helped spread the word and get about 500 new users following Xpenser. Thank you!
However, we’re still shy of the 2000 user mark, so we figured we would try good old fashioned bribery: we’re giving away an iPod Shuffle to one of the Twitter users that is following us when we hit the 2500 user mark.
To be eligible, you must follow the xpn user using your Twitter account. If you already follow xpn you are already eligible.
Since we’re not sure what the legal issues around doing contests outside the US are, you must be a US resident in order to be eligible, and we can only ship to US addresses. If someone points us at clear instructions that show expanding this outside the US is easy (we know there are a lot of attorneys using Xpenser, now is the time to speak!), we may expand it to other countries.
Please read the rules and legal notices, and spread the word, let your friends know they should follow xpn.
Why don’t you follow your registered users who wants to use twitter only after they follow you. This way the ratio of followers and following will always be maintained ? Am I missing something? Is it just ease of use for users?
Ajay, our original thinking was not to force users to follow us – we’re not looking to spam users or gain followers by force. However, as Twitter institutes the limit on following users we have to do exactly what you suggest.
