Thanks for the easy to understand recap of Facebook's contest rules. I have read conflicting opinions about whether or not you can make being a Facebook Fan a condition for entry. Some people say you can't but you say you can!! Is there anything else you can add to clarify this for me? I have been avoiding the FB Fan requirement in my giveaways but I would like to offer it as a condition for entry. Thanks! Hi! Thanks for the easy to understand recap of Facebook’s contest rules.

It does seem odd to lump in dairy with firearms and gasoline, but the reason, as I understand it, has more to do with concerns over price fixing and monopolization between dairy processors and dairy farmers. Milk money, if you will. That's why you can give away dairy to "everyone" but not give it to a select few as a prize! Cindy Hi Koodot.

I enjoyed speaking at Chris Brogan's conference at Gillette. It's good to be back in Boston, but brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. By the way, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter will be opening this April!

I hadn't seen the HP campaign, I'll go check it out. By the way, I saw you speak at a conference a year ago? at Gillette when you talked about the Harry Potter launch at Universal Orlando. FANTASTIC campaign. Welcome (back?) to New England, and the winters! (You used to be at Dunkin, right?) Thanks for sharing the link Cindy. I hadn’t seen the HP campaign, I’ll go check it out.

I absolutely adore your concept of catching kids in acts of kindness for video. That said, in full agreement that the key to success with social media contests is keeping barriers to entry low. You Tube is a great channel for big consumer reach. Have you seen HP's contest on You Tube ? It apparently received thousands of entries. Key to success seems to be that they offered different and easy forms of entering, doesn't hurt that the HP audience is already slightly more savvy in video creation than rest of the population, and the prizes were big slash expensive.!
