YouTube makes it so easy for me to run contests!

I woke up this morning, feeling the spring weather. I had a great night’s sleep. Everything was going well. So I thought to myself, how can I spread this lovely feeling around? 

Then it hit me! I want to pass this feeling on, why not give something away! I have had so much fun in the last few weeks giving stuff away, first the pass to web 2.0 expo in San Francisco, then the ticket to SM4SC. But what next? WHAT DO PEOPLE WHAT?

Why not ASK them! So I posted the question on twitter. Got some GREAT suggestions back, and then I synthesized and went to work! So here is it… the lastest GIVEAWAY!!! It’s spring, it’s fun, it’s time to explore, get out there, do something you haven’t done before… so HERE IT IS.. ENOUGH BUILD UP!!!

I, the Global Citizen, hereby have TWO tickets for THIS FRIDAY NIGHT SHOWING of STREB at S.L.A.M: CATAPULT… what is it, you ask? 

Oh man, it’s the goodness. it’s the loveliness. Some of you might know of the hashtag that I use on Twitter #bringiton … well, in this show, it has been B-ROUGH-TEN… You and a friend will each get tickets to the show, and thereby having an excuse to get to Brooklyn, and hang out with some of the coolest most limber, entertaining people I have ever seen… 

Just check out the write-up:

“Elizabeth Streb and her Action Faction take a closer look at the ordinary, inanimate things around us in STREB at SLAM: CATAPULT, their spring home season show at S.L.A.M. (Streb Lab for Action Mechanics) STREB’s spacious playground and launching pad for new ideas and new moves. David Van Tieghem’s sinuous, evocative soundtrack is the perfect accompaniment to STREB’s ongoing romantic adventure with gravity.”

I’m sorry, was that word evocative? Yes it was. When was the last time you ever saw something that could be described as e-v-o-c-a-t-i-v-e? FOR FREE? Here is your chance.. .

I had such a great time giving away the pass to Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco, that I’m going to give something else away. This time it’s www.sm4sc.com. 

If you haven’t heard about Social Media for Social Change, started with a single blog post by founder Gradon Tripp in the middle of 2008, but now Social Media for Social Change (SM4SC) serves as an example of how social media can bring together people from all around the world together to change society in a big way. The premise of SM4SC is simple — to take all the connections made through social media, and put them together to host first-class fundraising events happen “in real life”. SM4SC’s fundraisers benefit local charities in cities around the United States.

So what NOW? SM4SC is coming to NYC! And I think you should be involved with it. What am I prepared to do about it? Well, I’m going to GIVEAWAY a ticket.

That’s right.

FOR FREE.

Subscribe to my youtube channel, I will select a winner from that list.

So what if you’re already subscribed? Then post a comment on the channel! It’s THAT simple.

Contest ends Thursday, winner will be announced in my show on Thursday night!

Let the contest BEGIN!
