During November last year, I stumbled upon a video contest, entitled “My Computer Nightmare“. The task was to create a short video showing your worst computer nightmare. I was however very disappointed when I found out that it was only open to certain countries, and Australia wasn’t one of them. So I just left it alone and went on looking for more contest.

But Yesterday I decided to go back, and see how it was getting on. I was quite disappointed to see that it only had 34 entries.

I see a lot of contest on the internet these days, and it’s sad to see them not getting enough attention. There are so many creative people out there who just don’t find these, or for some reason aren’t motivated enough to enter them. So with this blog, I hope to give the contest a boost in it’s final days.

The contest is sponsored by Mozy, an online backup service. They offer a cheap way to back up you computer in case it crashes. Or, if your looking for something free (like me =P) They offer 2GB free.
So because there is a company behind this contest, there are some huge prizes! A holiday to Hawaii, Mac laptops, Flip cams and more. I’d really like to see some of these prizes go to people within the YouTube community.

The contest ends on the 16th of the month, so if you have some time in the next week, it’d be awesome to see you make a video.
If any of you do, please link me to it. =) I’d love to see.
