Giganews Invites Customers to 10 Year Anniversary Celebration
This news item is older than six months. Information presented here may no longer reflect current Giganews services or offers.
Giganews, Inc., the world's leading Usenet provider, is extremely proud to announce that 2008 marks the company’s official 10 year anniversary. To celebrate this historic event, Giganews will host an anniversary party in Paris, France. To honor their customers, Giganews is holding a contest which will award free invitations to the party.
The guest list will be comprised of winners of a photo and video contest for Giganews customers. Winners will only receive tickets to the event and must pay for their own hotel and travel expenses. Here’s how to enter:
- Print any of the images ("props") located at http://www.giganews.com/contest/props.html .
- Take a photo or video of one of the printed props somewhere
in your hometown – the more interesting, the better!
(Natural landmarks and famous monuments or buildings are obvious choices, but anything is fair game. Remember, the focus is on uniqueness and creativity.) - Post your video or photo on the binary newsgroup
giganews.contest.
The "giganews.contest" newsgroup will be moderated, so please keep this in mind when posting. No inappropriate entries will be allowed. - The giganews.contest newsgroup is only available on Giganews’ news servers. By posting your entry to giganews.contest you will be automatically identified by Giganews through your Giganews username and entered into the contest.
- You may submit multiple pictures or videos, but you will only receive credit for one entry.
- Winners will be randomly selected from the pool of entries and sent an invitation with a special code which you will use to reserve your spot on the guest list.
Giganews would also like to thank Vincent Charretier with Telecharger-Newsgroup.com for his help in coordinating things in Paris. Vincent was a huge help and we’re looking forward to seeing him at the party.
