I CAN HAZ Windows 7 SWAG

Windows 7 Swag 

Okay, so I’ve got a few Windows 7 branded stress balls and I’M A Windows 7 PC stickers to give away.

Since I have a limited number, I’ll not give away to everybody who asks for like the earlier stickers giveaway. Instead, we’ll have a typical blogger routine here.

Write a post on your blog with the title, I CAN HAZ Windows 7 SWAG, and tell us why you need one linking the post back to this blog. Anything goes. If you aren’t a blogger, post a note on your Facebook with the same deal. It’s a bit overdo and stressful, but then that’s when a stress-ball can help :)

Post links to your posts in the comments to this post. The giveaway ends June 16, 2009. Everyone’s invited, and I’ll ship these to you.

KTHXBAI!

UPDATE:

Apologies for a delayed update on this. The site suffered outage for four days, and the restore took a while (and some money!).

Anyway, Sreekant Nair, Anand Narayanaswamy, Gracelyne Fernando, Karthik K, Apurva Chaudhary, and Abhishek Pradhan would be shipped the stress-balls while Abhishek Suresh, Ankit Prakash, Chetan Thaker, and Vijay Raj get the stickers. Sorry others, I had a limited number. I’m still arranging for more, and if I could, you get them for sure.

Please email your shipping addresses to abby@baxiabhishek.info. If you don’t, somebody else might get lucky! Also, keep on the lookout for the upcoming post… another giveaway!
