# Enter the Larkware Contest

By Roy Osherove September 25, 2006 In [Cool Tools](https://osherove.com/blog/category/cool-tools)

**Historical article** · Originally published September 25, 2006; technical details may be outdated.

If you haven't already entered, you should [join the larkware 1,000 contest](http://www.larkware.com/contest2006/contest1000-13.aspx). It's pretty darn easy to join, and the [prizes](http://www.larkware.com/contest2006/contest1000-13.aspx) are awesome.

In fact, I'll be joining my self by posting a link to a useful site.

here's how you can enter:

1. At the top of the [Larkware home page](http://www.larkware.com/) you'll see the new "tell a friend" feature. Every time you refer someone to the site using this feature, your own e-mail address will be entered in a prize drawing that will be conducted when I publish #1000.
2. You can also enter by nominating a .NET-related weblog entry on someone else's weblog that you think is especially useful. If you enter this way, both you and the weblog author will be entered in the drawing. To enter by nominating a weblog entry, e-mail me with the URL of the entry that you think deserves wider recognition. No, you can't nominate your own weblog.
3. You can enter as many times as you like.

_E-mail addresses collected for the contest will not be shared or used for any other purpose beyond awarding prizes._
