WikiPock Twitter Contest

Those who don’t have an iPhone or internet connection when you need it the most, need something like WikiPock. WikiPock brings Wikipedia to your mobile phone so you can search for information anytime, anywhere without the need for an internet connection. The guys over at WikiPock sent me a review unit, and I’m loving it, so we decided to give away a copy to 10 lucky winners. WikiPock is available for Blackberry, and Windows mobile phones. Normally, this application is available for $9.99 as a download or it can be preloaded on a microSDHC memory card for an extra $15, but you can win one here before you head back to school or go on vacation.

To enter this contest, simply spread the word about this contest and WikiPock on Twitter by using the hashtags #wikipock and #techiediva in your tweet.

Example: I’m entering the #wikipock contest on #techiediva. Check it out.

If you don’t have a Twitter account, just leave us a message below in the comments section, and make sure you use a valid email account so we can contact you.

You should also visit WikiPock or visit their Twitter page at https://twitter.com/wikipock to learn more about this wicked cool application.

We will select the winners on June 24, 2009, so get your entry in before then. The contest is only open to U.S. citizens over 18.

Good luck everyone!

Update: We’ve extended the contest a few more days to give more people a chance to win, so make sure you enter.

Contest is now closed. Thanks to all those who entered!
