Hey everyone, I'm having a YouTube contest to give away an NVIDIA e-GeForce 8800 GT graphics card that i bought for $180 last year, for free! The contest is for the best informative, promotional, or awareness video for anything i like or might be interested in. So, you can pretty much do anything you want but some good topics include: Free Culture, Polyamory, Lojban, Atheism, Ubuntu, Anarchism, Creative Commons, Free Software and Open Source, etc, etc.

I'd like to get new people involved with the YouTube community so if this ends up being your first upload then bonus points to you! Also, uploading to The Internet Archive and The Video Bay (if it's functional yet) is a plus but completely optional. The only rules are:

  1. You must be subscribed to my YouTube channel and following my blog
  2. Your video must be licensed under a CC-BY-SA license or freer like Kopimi and
  3. The video must be created for this contest so no old videos.

Don't worry about camera quality, being super-creative, or having fancy special video effects because those things are nice but you really don't need them to make a good video. I'll be judging based more on the content of the video than any of those things so really use whatever you have whether it's a digital camera, crappy old webcam, or camera phone. I'm aiming for 50 video responses so you'll have a one in fifty chance of winning! The deadline will be August 3rd or until i get 50 responses, whichever one comes later. So, that's it. Start making videos! Good luck, and I look forward to seeing them!
