iPod touch giveaway - ends 7/10

To celebrate and announce the upcoming Happn.in iPhone application, we are giving away an iPod Touch on July 10. Here’s the deal:

To enter, just @-reply Happn.in within Twitter – that’s @happn_in (note the underscore). We will randomly choose one winner on July 10 at 5 PM Eastern Time.

TO INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING (three-fold): be sure you are a follower of one of the Happn.in cities on Twitter – check the list to find the city nearest you.

Happn.in makes Twitter more useful (see this recent blog post for why we think Twitter is mostly not useful right now) – we collect local data so you can see what people are Twittering about around you. Currently, we have over 130,000 people following 67 Happn.in cities worldwide. With our upcoming iPhone application, we’re going give our users even more ways to engage with their local community through Twitter.

Starting Sunday July 5, you can throw your name in the hat for our 8 GB iPod Touch Giveaway, and on Friday, July 10 at 5 PM Eastern, we’ll choose one of you at random.

Contest Rules

1. Contest runs from July 5 through July 10.
2. You enter by replying to @happn_in from your Twitter Account (doesn’t matter what you say, but if you use profane or offensive language, we’ll disqualify you and think lowly of you).
3. If, on July 10th, you are a follower of one of the 67 Happn.in Cities, you will be three times as likely to win the contest (think of it like this: anyone can get a raffle ticket, but Happn.in followers get THREE raffle tickets). You can see the full list (with links to their Twitter accounts) at Happn.in. You can follow more than one city, of course, but this won’t increase your chances.
4. A winner will be chosen at random on Friday, July 10 at 5 PM Eastern; and will be announced via the official Happn.in Twitter User (@happn_in)
5. The winner must provide us with a legit mailing address within 7 days of the announcement. We will attempt to contact the winner through Twitter Direct Message (though, that person must follow @happn_in for us to be able to do that). The 8 GB iPod Touch will be sent out within 7 days after receiving the mailing address.
6. We reserve the right to change or update these rules as necessary.
