After a busy day at work today I was going through my Twitter messages and noticed a tweet from Ryan Carson about his competition to win not only a ticket to all of the 2009 events he organizes, which includes the Future of Web Apps conference I spoke about in my previous post, but also a bag of other goodies such as an invite to a VIP speaker dinner!
Attending the Future of Web Apps, and the other conferences Ryan organizes could well change my life. I believe I have a great product and so much to learn. If I was able to go, I’d be able to learn from people that have failed to those that have become a success
So, you now have a pretty good understanding of why I want to go, now it’s over to you…
I want to buy you a gift
If I win this competition and got the chance to go to London, It would be my pleasure to share my happiness and good fortune and buy a lucky reader a gift from London. All you need to do is leave a comment below and tell me what you want! It’s that simple!
The gift must cost less than $200 (₤100) and the deadline for entries is 1st October. If I win the competition, I’ll put all the entries into a hat (at the conference) and will ask Ryan (If he’s busy I’ll pass the duty onto Mum) to pick a winner.
Thanks, and good luck!
The competition has ended and I didn’t win
I have decided that I will still reward a prize on my next trip to London












hmmm, Well $200 USD is £106.00, I’d be happy with £106.00 personally
I’m not exactly sure what they would have, but I wouldn’t mind some cool Shakespeare souvenirs/keepsakes. Oh! Maybe one of those little statues with Hamlet (or Shakespeare himself) holding Yorick’s skull.
I’d love a giant cuddly Zippy toy (from rainbow). That would be awesome.
Cheers, Matt
A Burberry jacket and cap and a pair of Reebok classics….and then give them to Tom.
One Cute teddy will be fine for me!
Anyways, I wish you win this. Good Luck.
A £100 gift from London leaves me with many choices but I really don’t want the £100 spent in London.
Can I trade my £100 LOndon gift for a couple of cartons of white tipped Marlboro Lights? If my memory serves me right you stay in Thailand so that should cost you about £15 tops!!!
It would be great. If you buy me Liverpool FC’s stuff. he he he.
A great big packet of Scottish shortbread cookies, and a tin of loose Earl Grey tea.
See? I’m cheap.
It would be fab if i could have a Monkey Teddy
Good Luck x
Best of luck Chris!
I need one badly…
My choice is the best electric razor you can get me
You can buy me Grays Athletic!! im sure you could get it and still have change at the mo.
Good Luck Ozzy!
If you win, you can buy me a drink — I live in London.
And it would be great to meet more bloggers…
Best of luck!
I want a $200 ipod. Or something British to do with horses, cats, tea, royalty, etc.
I wish You Luck.I don’t know what I would want exactly but it better not be a ” I Know someone who went to London” T shirt!!!
Arsenal T-shirt.
Thanks.
Hi Chris,
Great idea, if you win you can spend the $200 on my train fare from Plymouth to London so I can come catch up with you too! (and we can spend the change on beer)
Matt
I do hope you get to go to London and if you do, I would love a decent Mp3 player lol so I can listen to my sounds. And maybe some of your sounds too !!

Hi Chris
Take a picture of yours with Ryan Carson while you are in the event, print it on a glossy postcard and Fedex it to my place. Well, that wont cost you £100 but will certainly make my day as i haven’t got anything from overseas ever. So, do consider my entry for the gift too.
Regards
Tajim

1) Thank you for the well wishes on my b-day.
2) I’d take a postcard. I know, you said $200 but I don’t really know what else I’d need. Either way, if you go take lots of pictures. I’ve been to Thailand but never to…well Europe. London sounds like it would be a blast. Best of luck to you!
