I’ve never run one but I have won one. I had to find out how many pixels or something were in an image. I won an ipod shuffle. Most useless thing I’ve ever won, tried to load some mp3s onto it but it was having none of it. After a bit of Googling I discovered you need to install iTunes before anything will work on it. I unplugged it and it’s still in its box in a drawer. I’ll probably give it away as a Christmas or birthday present one of these days. Anyway, I think a pair of your earring is a much, much better prize.
Good to see you blogging again by the way

I guess there’s something to be said to going down the random route — no favouritism etc. But not as much fun as Suburban Mum’s haiku, or something similar, though. Maybe you could do a combination of the two: pick at random; but one entry for the comment; and one for the haiku, or finish a sentence, or whatever; one for tweeting it out; etc — it would increase their chances of winning to have more entries. You could even allow multiple entries providing they were unique; though I would suggest only once for tweeting it.

I did one where I made everyone write a haiku and then I picked my favourite to receive an iPod. It just made me laugh more than anything, certain people tried many many times and it was really hard to pick a favourite so in the end I just picked one at random!
