productdose Wiki Contest

We've thoroughly enjoyed watching readers get involved in our new wiki functionality, editing previously-created pages and adding new content that benefits the whole productdose community. It's apparent that readers haven't quite gotten the hang of creating new wiki pages, though. So, we're raising the stakes and introducing the latest productdose contest, in which we will award prizes for the best wiki page produced over the course of a month. This includes brand wikis, how-to wikis, and wiki buying guides.

All new wikis posted to productdose will be judged by a six-person panel of productdose colleagues, including representatives from brands and merchants we love. We're currently making final decisions on who will be in the panel, so we can't say who will be involved or what the prizes will be just yet. What we can tell you is that On The Fly is giving away the first prize, which will be a two-night stay in San Francisco, including airfare for two and entrance to The World Is Just Enough, a 20,000 sq. ft. showcase of audio/theater equipment, upscale menswear, accessories, and automobiles.

Sponsored by On the Fly, Club Sportiva, and Mitra, The World is Just Enough is a benefit for City of Dreams, a San Francisco-based nonprofit organization dedicated to mentoring at-risk youth. Limited to 400 guests, the party will be an intimate opportunity to check out a lot of amazing apparel, electronics, and automobiles aimed at just the type of guy who reads productdose. Participating vendors include Mulholland Brothers, Michael Toschi, Fairway & Greene, and nearly 20 others, and complimentary wine and appetizers, including a Martini and Manhattan bar, will keep you refreshed.

On The Fly will be sending one lucky productdose wiki writer, plus one guest, to the party, which will take place in San Francisco on November 17. Plus, you will be put up in a hotel for two nights. All you have to do is write and post a great wiki on the site. Entries will be accepted through the end of October, at which point we will announce the judges, and then the winner. Because this first prize is so remarkable, we've narrowed the entry period; make sure you create and submit your wiki before November 1st, or your wiki will be entered into the contest for next month's prize. If you want to give yourself better odds, feel free to enter as many times as you like. Good luck!
