I Won! I Won! I Won but…

Posted by Hyder on March 20th, 2007

Update: He has given it to the runner up caption. Congrats to whoever that is.

ReadWriteWeb had this caption contest a few days ago and one lucky person was going to win a Ticket to the Under the Radar Office 2.0 conference.

Well guess what I WON! AAAHHHH!!!

The funny thing was that I never expected to win. The caption was for a photo of a kid and somebody scanning him  { pic below } and I just put something up in the air and said “Google Human Indexing - We start early.”

I purely did it just for fun and seriously never expected to win. Now I’m thinking to myself I’m all the way in Eastern Europe how am I going to make it the United States I can’t even get a ticket quick enough to make it there. Plus a whole bunch of other reasons that I cannot divulge here.

So I have emailed Richard of RWW to either give it away to the next best entry or put up a 1 day auction on ebay and donate proceeds to charity.

I’ll update when he gets back to me or you can check Read Write Web.

This is just amazing, I entered for the pure fun of it and never expected to win. I really hope he doesn’t hate me for it.

My winning caption - “Google Human Indexing - We start early.”
