New Media Super Contest!

The New Media Super Contest has over 80 prizes from over 50 sponsors worth over $4,500! Take a look at the prize and sponsor list below.

Premium Sponsors

While we link out to all sponsors as a way of thanking them for adding to our prize pool, we also wanted to thank the premium sponsors, who went the extra mile to add larger prizes to the contest.

Pinky Arcade

The 5 member team at Pinky Arcade contacted us early on to ask if we'd like to have a 160GB Sony PS3 to give away in the contest. If you are a gamer, you would notice that this system isn't released yet and it's going to be the latest model for the widely popular, PS3. No strangers to giving away tons of free prizes, Pinky Arcade has already given away huge gift cards, consoles, and mp3 players. All these given away for simply playing some free games on the site.

BadEvan's Gay Blog

Evan also joined up as a sponsor early on, not only by helping promote via Twitter, and other "new media", but also by throwing in around $1,500 in advertising, reviews, and cash.

EcoPower and EcoVista

The sales team at EcoPower heard about the contest and sponsored it with some unexpected, but cool, prizes. Their EcoPower and EcoVista products help you save fuel in your automobile and electricity in your home or office. The products are pretty inexpensive, too, so they offered up three of each!

How to sponsor

Although the contest is already under way, we'll accept sponsors and prizes until the very end. Currently we're looking for more cash and electronics like laptops, iPods, etc., but feel free to be creative. Remember to think big. The better your prize, the more attention you'll get in the contest. Premium sponsors will receive special mentions in contest posts, in addition to all the name recognition and traffic the contest will bring naturally.

To sponsor, just email joe@joetech.com with the subject "NEW MEDIA SUPER CONTEST". Each prize should be worth at least $10 U.S. Include the details about the prize or prizes you are offering, the U.S. dollar value of each prize, your site or company name and the URL to link to. All sponsors will be added to the list as seen above and updates will be posted on every Thursday.
