You’re Not Saving Money…Calm The @#*% Down
We discussed this briefly at this weekend’s Dot Com Pho after we heard the news of a Walmart employee getting trampled to death and shootings breaking out over the Black Friday sales a couple days ago. Seriously, we all agreed that this was pure idiocy…not only for the tragic events that occurred but the [...]

After she won the Zune giveaway contest from John Chow in April, Ms. Danielle is giving it right back to one of her lucky readers. I’m a big fan of Danielle’s blog site. Like me, she posts on just about everything, which ranges from her first experiences in golf to hamsters that steal toothbrushes.
Danielle is also a regular reader of this site and one of the top commentators in each of the last three months, topping the list in April. She is, however, slacking slightly this month and is just off the list at the moment.
I actually saw this particular Zune just before it left Vancouver at a regular Dot Com Pho day in the hands of John Chow. We don’t get very many Zunes here in Canada so I thought it was quite an interesting product. However, being the owner of several iPods, if I were to win the contest, I would probably also give it away like the Zune’s previous owners. I find it sort of funny that it will have exchanged hands at least three times before it’s actually used on a regular basis.

it’s kinda eerie that so many ppl have either seen this zune in person, held it, or fondled it (as m.kwan puts it). i’m sort of rooting for you bc i wanna see where it will go next. lol so far it’s usa, canada, usa, ???canada??? then? hahahahaha
Replygood luck, awesome ed!!
I like when things are exchanged from blogger to blogger. It adds to the history! All of us use iPods anyway, so we don’t mind giving this thing away.
