Quite Interesting (QI) competition

Have you ever wanted to start your own blog?  But didn't know where to start? Is there stuff hidden in your brain that needs to be shared?  Would you like a lovely online photo album or a blog?

Okeleydokely ... I'm giving away a one-year typepad* plus subscription (worth over $US80) to the person who can tell me the most, quite-interesting thing they can think of before February.

The Quite Interesting Competition:  

• The prize will go to the person who tells me the most, quite-interesting thing that they can think of (that isn't x-rated).
• Send you QI fact via my blog comments or email to
• Every few days, I'll post worthy QI facts to my weblog so you can see them via your RSS feeder.
• Competition runs during January 2005 and I'll announce the winner in early February 2005.
• Anyone can enter.
• I'm the judge and my decision is final.
• The winner is responsible for renewing their typepad subscription (if they want) at the end of the year.

You might find a few quite interesting ideas here: www.QI.com but none of them count.

* I don't want to turn this into an advert for typepad but I've happily been using typepad to run my 3 blogs for about a year now.  I like it and I recommend it because it is both fully featured and damned easy to use.  With this subscription you can run up to 3 blogs, as many photo albums as you want, and have a separate domain for each.  Typepad automates comments, track backs, RSS feeds, and all that dinky stuff.  I got the free subscription by converting my own subscription into a yearly payment scheme.  I'm not in cahoots with typepad or anything.
