The Big Yellow Book Giveaway

As the ‘Typographic Desk Reference’ giveaway was so damn popular, I thought what else might cause such eager interest. So this giveaway pulls no punches, ‘FontBook’, or affectionately known in privileged circles as the ‘The Big Yellow Book’  by Fontshop, could be sitting on your desk in several weeks time.

I can’t offer any practical thoughts on this book, or even a review, as I don’t have a copy of my own to ‘review’ or boast about. So I am taking it as given this is a book most typenerds would want.

I want one, give me!

Of course you do, I bloody want one as well dammit.

Moving on. So, to have any chance of winning this prestigious tome, you must do the following. Mostly consists of pandering to my desire to be the center of everyone’s universe. I realise a lot of people are still not into FriendFeed, so this is my way of subtly suggesting you ‘ought’ to give FriendFeed a shot.

1. Sign up to my FriendFeed, Twitter and RSS Feed. (I will check to see if the winner has followed those 3 simple steps. If not, then FAIL.)
2. If you are into FaceBook, then feel free to sign up here as well. That’s optional.
3. Leave a comment below, with Twitter ID. No Twitter ID, no win. Graciass.
4. In the comment, please confirm you have followed the points in #1 to the letter. If you are already following etc, then just say so. No need to unfollow then refollow.
5. Finally, leave me a joke in the comment. I know, it sounds odd, but just humour me (pun clearly intended). The quality of the joke has NO bearing on the winner as this is randomly picked. It just gives me something to smile over when I’m reading them. :)
   

Then a week from now, I will pick a name from random and announce the winner.

Small Print

This book will likely be sent direct from FontShop.

To whom it may concern

This and prior giveaways are self-funded, opposed to being sponsored, so the quantity of prizes are usually limited to one-offs. or at least, very limited. If any company reading this would like to offer up some similar prizes for advertising and marketing purposes, then please get in contact.

Till this time, I will continue to offer the type of prizes that I wold like to win, so hopefully something of nerdy and geeky value and interest.
