April 8 – National Draw a Picture of a Bird Day
April 08 2010Hi Tweetie Tweeter Tweetshare Tweeps! Nice to finally blog meet you. I’m Horace J. Bird and, I tweet you, what better way to kick of the ol’bloggy blog than with an homage to…moi? I went around the Fuze Box office (parent company to Tweetshare and Fuze Meeting) and pecked the staff until they drew me a sweet pic. And of COURSE we’re having a contest to support such a momentous day! Scroll down past these hottt (triple hot) drawings for more info on the bird drawing contest.
Draw a Bird Guidelines:
What’s that you tweet, you want to be one of the first people in the history of the world ever to sport some Tweetshare schwag?!?!? I knew it. Not only that, but you can stick some serious cash (well…gift card) in your pocket in the process.
So…all you need to do is draw a picture of a bird…any BIRD, scan it in, load it to Tweetshare and sit back and wait for your free T-shirt and money to roll in. Well…sort of.
Here. Have some more details:
- Draw a bird. This is not a graphic design contest (not yet…but I’m sure we’ll have one soon) so bust out your pen and a little piece of paper and sketch something out. What we’re looking for is cleverness and simplicity. Just check out our staffs’ brilliant examples. FYI Rich won the staff contest. Chances are if you’re using more than 2 colors and it’s bigger than a post-it, you’re probably trying too hard. This is a measure of wit!
- Scan’n Post. Should be self explanatory, but yes…go use your scanner (or take a pic) and upload it to Tweetshare. Be sure to include “@Tweetshare” in your post so we see it!
- Get a T-shirt. We are literally going to snail mail a T-shirt to every bird we think is tweetastic. Could be 4, could be 40. Not knowing is part of the adventure.
- Get some gouda. Tweetshare staff will pick their fave 4, and we’ll have a vote on Tweetshare to determine the winners. First place – $50 Gift Card to iTunes, second place – $20 Gift Card to iTunes, third place a $10… You guessed it, Gift Card to iTunes… And fourth place – 20 cents and a note of condolence from our Community Manager.
Best of luck,
Horace

The Scan’n Post doesn’t have a link for uploading, is it ok if we send it to ya via TwitPic or something?
