We are long overdue on hosting a new contest, so what better time than Thanksgiving? Our loyal readers are awesome and we want to show how much we appreciate you.
We will be hosting a special Thanksgiveawy Scavenger Hunt. We’ve made a list of 10 items we want you to find and photo. Some items we will pick the first user to submit a picture. Other items, we will select the best picture for the day.
The contest rules are simple:
- Snap a photo of the scavenger hunt item with your Android phone.
- Upload the photo and post it to Twitter.
- Add the hash tag for your item.
Users can submit pictures using any Twitter photo service (Twitpic, YFrog, Twitgoo, Posterous, etc).
Don’t have a Twitter account yet? Sign up and follow @androidandme. There are dozens of Twitter apps for Android and our favorite is Twidroid. Other popular Twitter clients include Seesmic, Swift, and TwitterRide.
Prizes
Our contest is being sponsored by our new Android and Me Store. We will be giving away 10x $25 gift certificates (one for each scavenger hunt item).
Eligilbility
The contest is open to residents from any country our store ships to. We currently ship to North America, Europe, Australia, and Japan. I’m not sure if all those countries actually celebrate Thanksgiving, but you all are welcome to try and participate in the scavenger hunt.
