Microsoft’s Golden Ticket Idea

Microsoft’s Golden Ticket Idea

Nick Hernandez 26 Aug

Many contests have come and gone throughout the years. But none were as awesome as Microsoft’s at TechEd Australia 2010 and helped them get there name out there because of the idea.

Microsoft decided it would be a good time to follow what the good ole’ Willy Wonka did in the movies but in a much smaller scale. Microsoft is giving away 250 Windows Phone 7 branded blocks of chocolate and 5 of these delicious (we hope) pieces of candy will be awarded a new Windows Mobile 6.5 device, and when released, a Windows Phone 7 device.

Would be nice to get one of those bars in North America but no such luck.

Post below your thoughts on this method!
