Winner of ETech Caption Contest

Written by Richard MacManus / March 23, 2007 1:18 PM / 7 Comments

We had a great response to the ETech Caption Contest, with the winner receiving a free ticket to O'Reilly's Emerging Technology conference next week - March 26-29, in San Diego. And the winner is... [drum roll] Kevin Jones, with this caption:

"You navigated through Vista's new security and accessed MySpace! Good job!"

Congratulations Kevin, you've won a free pass to ETech, enabling you to attend the Tuesday-Thursday sessions. I'll be in touch with more details.

Some other entries I liked:

"Act calm honey ... he won't bite as long as you don't open Google ..."
by Chen

"A gleeful Bill Gates unveils the new "Tickle Me Ballmer" to the delight of fans both young and old."
by Andy

"mommie, what does "welcome to the social" mean?"
by ryan

"Yea! We finally found some folks who love our software!"
by Joshua Porter [who I happen to know is an Apple fan!]

  1. No offense to your winner, but I think Andy got robbed.

  2. They're all good, but you picked the winner. Now, if the rest of us could only do the same thing ...

  3. Harold, do you mean enable the readers to pick a winner? If I can work out a good way to do that, it's a great idea. Maybe do a quick poll.... any other suggestions?

  5. Dude, I totally forgot about this and I am in southern California, doh!

    Congrats to the winner though.

    My caption would have been:

    "Repeat after me kids, open source is bad, genuine is better, and DRM will keep you safe .. now who wants to trade their ipod in for a ZUNE!"

    A poll is a good idea, but I was referring to the ability to navigate Vista's security controls ;-)
