Netfirms Twitter Contest

I'm always entering contests trying to win stuff. Here's something I've seen several times today on twitter:
Win a #free iPod Touch or Macbook from the @Netfirms #contest. Domain registration services via Twitter http://bit.ly/yJfJK
It couldn't be easier, tweet to be entered into the Netfirms contest. You can tweet once per day to enter. Another way to enter is to register a domain via twitter. Didn't know you could register a domain through twitter? Neither did I, but with Netfirms now you can.

It takes some set up first. You have to register for a free Netfirms account and add your twitter information to your Netfirms control panel, and then you're good to go. You can register a domain from anywhere you can access twitter, even from your phone if you've got it set up, as this video shows:



So, when you're surfing the web or out on the town, and you suddenly think of the perfect domain name, you can register it right then and there. Simply send a DM to @Netfirms with the following: reg mynewdomain.com (replace mynewdomain.com with the domain you wish to register. If that domain is available, they'll send you a confirmation of the registration, for the low price of $7.95. And for every domain you register, you get an entry into the contest.

The Netfirms contest ends October 7, and you can tweet once per day.
