Only two more weeks left to win a Mimbot
Monday, February 1, 2010 by Amber
I had a long, sickly weekend, so it's going to be a short post for me today, my friends, while I work to shrug the blahs.
Cheering me up, as always, is being able to give cute things away to you! For those new to Byte-Sized (shocker, I know), let's do a recap:
For the last few weeks, I've been giving away ONE Hello Kitty USB flash drive with 2 gigs of storage capacity, courtesy of Mimoco, home of the cutest USB drives on the planet. All you have to do is enter once by emailing me at bytesized@captivate.com and your name will go in a pool for every week of the Hello Kitty giveaway.
This week's special friend is merrily frolicking through fields of green and tulips while she teases and tempts you to win her!
Please visit http://www.mimoco.com/ to see the latest designs the company has commissioned for their 'bots, and join me back here on Wednesday when I announce the winner!
Until then, I think I need some Vitamin B12 or something ... :) Here are a few tasty headlines to tickle your fancy:
-- The Olympics are coming up, and I can't get enough. So, here's some interesting coverage from CNet on how the event coordinators are using bales of hay to augment not enough snow.
--It's becoming the most retold story of our age -- and no, I'm not talking about 'Romeo and Juliet finally have a happy ending' that is 'Twilight,' I'm talking about which system is more secure, PC or Mac. And, as it turns out, you shouldn't take your security knowledge from Drew Barrymore's boyfriend.
--Honey, if you're reading, I posted this story for you: Dell has a new netbook out.
--I'm all about e-readers, and I say to you, iPad, bring it ON.
--Yay, best for last! Here is a great list of some amazing projects from NASA and beyond! Wooo!
