For those not in the know, May I Hebb Your Attention Pliss is now available on Preorder on Flipkart. (Depending on when you read this, it may no longer be on Preorder …)
For those of you wondering what Preorder is, it’s the equivalent of Advance Booking. Which just means you won’t have to stand in line staring at a House Full Board (or in this case, Out-of-Stock), because demand > supply and people will run out of copies by the time you decide what and where to buy it from.
So click here to Prebook Your Copy of the Greatbong’s Book.
In other news, Greatbong has an online contest around for a while. To save you a bit of trouble, here are the hoops you need to jump through.
1. On your blog, provide a link to this page. (http://greatbong.net/book). Embedding the above picture in your blog would be nice but not needed.
2. Then write down your top 10 Hindi movie lines or top 10 English movie lines (You can do both if you want. Only one set is required for the contest).If you cannot think of top 10, make it top 5. Cannot think of even 5? Make it top 3. No problem. Only Restriction: No two lines from same movie. This done to make it fair for other movies so that they dont get swamped by Gunda or Loha or Sholay.
3. Tag five friends to do the same.
4. Come over to the comment-space of this post and post your blog’s link so Greatbong can go and read it.
Remember:Before starting the tag, paste points 1 and 4 on your blog so that the rules are available to anyone who wishes to pick the tag up from your blog.
What if you dont have a blog? Put your “Top list” in the comments section of this post and tweet the link to your friends (No need to tag specific people). Please use #MIHYAP so that Greatbong can pick it up. No twitter? Link to your comment from Facebook/Orkut status message and add Greatbong as a friend @Facebook or at @Orkut so he can see the message. [Prefer Facebook if you have accounts in both places]
Prizes: Two prizes will be given. One prize will be the post Greatbong likes the most. The other prize will be a random drawing among everyone who picks up the tag. Note a blog entry will be considered valid only if a link to http://greatbong.net/book is provided AND 5 people are tagged [They do not need to pick the tag up for your entry to count though], a “comments-in-RTDM” entry will be considered valid only if the link is tweeted with #MIHYAP tag or posted as status message on FB that Greatbong can see.
And what’s the prize? No it is not an iPod, iPad or [insert fictitious prize item here]. Prizes will consist of a copy of Greatbong’s book “May I Hebb Your Attention Pliss” which will be sent to the winner once it is published and released.
Note: Very important. The prizes will be delivered by the Publisher ONLY to addresses within India. If you are outside India, you would need to provide them with an Indian address.
And yes this is a shameless promotion stunt. Greatbong has a book to sell. Flipkart has Greatbong’s book to sell. We need to pimp it a bit.
Did I just copy this entire list from Greatbong.net’s Contest Page? Yes.
Did I just change “me” and “I” to Greatbong/he/him ? Yes.
And yes, there is a thin line between “plagiarise” and “paraphrase”, and I’m walking it.
