Hey everyone, I know I haven't been on the boards lately, was at the Affiliate Summit show in Vegas and then some follow up meetings from my last trip in San Francisco. Finally got back to Israel and have a million and one things to do including going through the last 10 days of posts on this board.
In anycase we just launched our first Facebook App called iBeg. You can see the site at www.iBeg.tv but to enter and vote in the contest you need to install the app on Facebook.
Basically we offer you great prizes and you post a video "begging" for the prize. At the end of the contest, the one with the most votes gets the prize.
In this first round we are offering an iTouch, a Wii and a Dell Laptop.
So please, if you are on Facebook, search for the App "iBeg" and install and vote for someone even if you are not going to enter. It will help me out a lot.
I would also value any feedback you will have for me!
Future prizes will include diamond jewelry, vacations, meetings with celebrities and much more.
