Multiply Webcam Contest RulesIntroduction Webcam Contest Now that Multiply allows users to post videos and replies recorded from a webcam, it's that much easier to share video of yourself with friends and family! To spread the word about this new feature, we're giving away 10 webcams! For a chance to win our contest ("the Contest"), just get a friend with a webcam to post a video reply to the message titled, "Wanna Win a Webcam?" located on Multiply's staff blog: http://multiply.multiply.com/journal/item/202. In the video, your Multiply ID must be clearly visible on a piece of paper held up by the person posting the reply. That's it! Only one reply per registered user is allowed, but you can ask everyone you know with a webcam to post one reply nominating you – each individual reply will be entered into a random drawing from which we'll select 10 users who will win a webcam. So the more replies posted on your behalf, the more chances you have to win! The Contest will begin on December 12th, 2007 and entries must be posted on Multiply no later than 11:59 PM (Eastern time in the U.S.) on December 26th, 2007.
