Blog and Win a $20k Blogging Scholarship!

Hey kids,

We’re taking a quick break from our regular programming to let you know about a cool contest that Lenovo (the laptop company) is holding:

Lenovo is stepping up to the plate to make life a little easier for college students. Lenovo’s new The University of Bloggers Back to School program gives all U.S. college students (undergrads and graduate students), the opportunity to start a blog and compete for a $20,000 scholarship and a wide range of other prizes. Other prizes include brand new Lenovo laptops, a $1,000 gift card to your school’s bookstore, and more!

Here’s what you need to do to put yourself in a position to snag a top prize:

• Create a blog at LenovoBlogU.com—First things first, you need to start a blog on the contest
microsite. So, head over to www.LenovoBlogU.com, click the “Sign Up Now” button, and
register your new blog.

• Make a goal for your blog—The idea behind this blogging contest is that each blogger will have
a specific purpose or milestone they wish to achieve, and they’ll blog about their efforts. Create a unique goal, and blog about your progress.

• Write well. Write often—The key to building any popular, successful blog is to write creative
content on a consistent basis. The more you blog, the better your chances of winning.

• Tell all your friends—The Lenovo scholarship giveaway is somewhat of a popularity contest.
The more people who read and comment on your posts, the better.

This blog scholarship giveaway ends at 12:00 pm EST on October 1, 2010. So, you have less than a month
to start your blog and make it great. Think you don’t have what it takes? Blogga please! You can do it!
