By Priya Priyadarshini What is WOW? No, it is not the World of Warcraft. Have you visited the Microsoft website lately? Vista and
Office 2007 are all set to launch on Jan 30th worldwide, and in some countries it is already Jan 30th! We will start the celebrations here in Redmond at 1:35 PM today, Pacific Standard Time (PST). I feel that “Show us your Wow” is a great early consumer marketing effort initiated by BillG himself. The marketing campaign/contest is worldwide and is web-based, and it gives you an opportunity to showcase your talent and share your imagination and skills. The campaign is linked to a Windows Vista program where we are encouraging folks to submit pictures/videos/art of their favorite “Wow” moments. You can take a look at some of the images people have sent in – or send in your own – by visiting the Show us your Wow site. So what are you waiting for? It's time to show YOUR world to the rest of us. I wanted to call out to my international audience, as this is your chance to share your rich culture and heritage. The contest has already begun at 12:01 p.m. Pacific Time (“PT”) on January 4, 2007 and ends at 11:59 p.m. PT on March 5, 2007. Each person can submit 10 entries,
Office Professional Plus 2010, so go for it! Ok, so what’s the catch? I must admit there is one “little” catch. To upload that "Wow," people need to have or obtain a Windows Live ID. Oh well, that is not a lot when you have the opportunity to win some cool stuff. BTW, what do you all think of the tagline “Show us your wow”? I have read that a lot of people do not like the phrase, so if you are one of them, what would your tagline be instead?
