UPDATE JULY 2ND: Congratulations to bigtaurus (Big John - The Online Info Guy) who won the June link giveaway.

Would you like to have a text link to your site on PlugIM for a month? All you need to do is participate in the PlugIM community during the month of June and then at the end of the month we will have a drawing to pick the winner. The winner’s text link will be displayed on PlugIM for the entire month of July. The more you participate, the more entries you get in the drawing which increases your odds of winning. Here’s how to get entries in the drawing:

• Every comment posted: 1 entry

So if you comment once on 10 different stories in June you’ll have 10 entries in the drawing. Note: these are comments posted in response to stories on PlugIM. Not story submissions.

Why are comments the only way to receive entries? Two reasons: most importantly I’m trying to encourage you all to communicate more. PlugIM isn’t only for posting links, it’s also for discussion around the stories that are submitted. The second reason is help break in the new story subscription mod that we just finished implementing earlier this month. Using this mod, it will be a lot easier to know when someone comments on one of your stories which will make it easier to have ongoing conversations. My personal request: please don’t post junk comments on every story such as “Wow, that’s really cool” or “Awesome info, thanks for sharing!” While these comments may in fact be true, the goal of this giveaway isn’t to encourage spamming, it’s to encourage constructive participation. I have no easy way of policing this, so I ask that everyone play responsibly.
