September Competition - Win $100!!

September 9th, 2007 • Related • Filed Under

We haven’t had a competition for a while, so I think it’s time for a new one.

I’m too tired to come up with a new format, so I’m borrowing the format of the most successful competition. To win this month all you have to is guess how much Connected Internet will make this month. You can guess enter a maximum of 20 times - the closest entry will win $100 in Amazon vouchers. Good luck!

If you need any pointers then my historical MyBlogEarnings can be found here.
