Now accepting stickers for free advertising

committed to database on September 30, 2009 at 11:44 am Eastern Standard Time 12 comments digg this

I am now accepting your stickers for placement on the lid of my oft-used Lenovo X300 laptop, measuring at 12.4" x 9.1" (314.96mm x 231.14mm). I will showcase the stickers at least until November 20th, but it’s very likely they’ll remain in place for much longer. (Removing stickers is not fun.)

Notable showcase locations:

The rules are simple:

  • No pornographic, druggie, dating, or nude stickers. Violence is acceptable though.
  • No overly humongous stickers.  Be realistic.
  • No Katy Perry. No Miley Cyrus. No Paul Thurrott.
  • I ultimately decide if I want to use your sticker or not. Product samples and/or bribes can work to your advantage.

If you’re interested, email rafael+stickers@withinwindows.com with a description/image of your sticker and I’ll send you an address to mail them to.

Accepted stickers thus far: Bing, Identity Mine, LiveSide, Pingie, DataPortability, F-Secure, Hostgator

    Seriously? No Thurrott stickers? Crap. Now what am I going to do with this box of them?

    If you want to advertise your detox clinic, I can make exceptions.

    Rafael – I will also be attending the launch in NYC – hoping I can check out your laptop while there and get to meet you. Have been following your stuff for sometime now.

    Paul Thurrott stickers? Where do I get those? I’ll advertise for him.
    Then again, what am I saying? I already got most of my friends to read WinSuperSite and follow him on Twitter.

    Hi Rafael,
    I would love to see the set of stickers you’re displaying on your Lenovo now. Unfortunately, I don’t have any hope of getting to Windows 7 launch or Microsoft PDC 2009.
    I’m a new reader of your blog, who have just added it to my GReader. Pass through here via a link on Groklaw. ;-)
    regards,
    sabre23t =^.^=
