Be a Hero. Save a Blog (you could win an iPod or a Cricut)

So, my awesome brother started this company, called Bloggled, to help all us bloggers in the world!! You can back up your blog for free!!! So if you delete something, they can retrieve it for you. If you accidently delete your whole blog (after you have backed it up) they can bring it back to life. You can even turn your blog into a book, without all the extra uploading :)

Anywho, they are having a great contest on Monday December 15th to celebrate the launch of their website! You could win a Cricut or an 16 GB iPod Touch!!! So keep on reading to find out how to enter to win!!! Good luck!!

Have you ever had this experience? You are posting to your blog, click the publish button, and the very next thing you know the screen is blank. So, you click back to your drafts and nothing is there, then you click your published posts and nothing is there. At this point you are starting to think to yourself…oh no, what just happened? As you continue searching your blog admin for information you see that all your uploaded images, videos, files, and everything is gone. Living through this situation would be enough to devastate any blogger. Knowing that years of data about your person, family, or business is gone can be difficult to overcome emotionally, but even more difficult of a problem to solve. If you haven’t backed up your blog recently, or ever, chances are your posts and everything else are gone for good.

This is the kind of situation that led Brent Ramey to the idea of creating Bloggled.com, “and to honestly save anyone in that situation the act of going insane.” Bloggled.com is a blog backup company that is allowing bloggers to backup their blog for free as an introductory product to celebrate their official launch out of beta and as a holiday gift this season. Bloggled is also offering multiple prizes to those who participate in their “Be a Hero, Save a Blog Contest” that is running through the day on Monday, December 15, 2008. Winners can choose from either a 16GB iPod Touch, or a Cricut Personal Electronic Cutter Machine and it’s quite simple to enter. All you have to do is one of the items below, but if you do more you get entered more times into the drawing…but you have to enter by Monday 12/15 to qualify so act fast, or should I say slow so I have a better chance of winning. :)
