The camera of the phone looks good to me [doubtful smile]

Did you manage to get your hands on the device? [amazed]
Anant how is its camera and battery backup???
Cool... so does it maintain focus in quick burst shots?
No it shifts focus AS broda
This contest's main page said that entries will be displayed on 30-06-2014, but these aren't dispayed yet.
The Borosil page didn't say that entries will be displayed before the conetst closes on 7th, but the entries have started to display now itself...???
Since some of the results (IP and EB) were announced, they displayed the entries. For this contest, no results were announced. Also, I think the contest got extended to 5th July.
Entries submitted by 5/7/14 are eligible for the Indi-Pattaani prizes
Hence not displayed.
confusing lol its funny
Entries for this contest are visible now. I think they should have closed the Indi-Pattani prizes before making the entries visible. Anyways, you can go and check them out now.
But now there is no Submit button to post more entries. Heck, I am not able to understand anything with this contest!
Renie, why we are not able to submit any post for this contest now. The Indi-Pattani awards will be considered till 5 July right. But the submission link is not found
Question. ..really simple though if I move my blog to a website can I still be an indiblogger?
Not Really
Because it wont recognize the new URL it will only accept URLs from the old blog
so u can try submitting urls from old blog
or submit the new website name as another blog
Well u will actually be an indiblogger forever
the question is will u be able to aubmit ur posts from ur old url :P
Beyond as in from heaven :P
Do they also serve from Hell , As I Might be blogging from there?
I heard the contest prizes will be given out to people from Delhi only since the indimeet is in Delhi. Is that true?
Absolutely not, Manan! Who told you that? 
The plan is to announce the winners on twitter - there is no award ceremony at the meet. We've already discussed this with ASUS - the winners could be from anywhere, there will be no geographical discrimination!
Why are the entries displayed before the contest ends? There is a possibility of people copying or plagiarising the content. It gives an unfair advantage to people who will post later. Is it not?

IB records the time at which entries are submitted. So, if two entries are similar, the first submitted one will be given preference.
Ranjith, do you really think the sponsors or the actual judges of the contests, whoever they are, would be having the time, resources, logistics, capabilities and/or interest in first finding similar posts and then, over and above that comparing their timestamps? Remember, I am not talking of copy-pasted posts, I am talking of posts that lift subtle ideas, remodel them or restructure them semantically or syntactically and sugar coat the lexicon. Recognizing cases of copy-pasted plagiarism is a cakewalk but finding those of remodeling can be an impossible mountain trek even for seasoned judges. So I believe the hypothesis of posts submitted earlier given a preference over latter ones in case of similar content is only a theoretical possibility, while practically it is 'im(not)possible'.
and then there is a huge chances of the copy cats being caught , so dont worry !
They Might still copy the idea , but they cant copy the quality , can they !
Anant Even if entries are hidden, bloggers can use Google to find contest entries. 
DvD, I never worry about contests. The point is I believe sponsors only look for the posts that best promote them and would not be thinking even once in terms of copying or lifting ideas unless someone voluntarily complains. Hence, entries should not be displayed before end of a contest. 
Ranjith, in that case I think bloggers do not have the time, resources, logistics, capabilities and/or interest in finding entries through Google. I think you have spilled the beans here and many of those who had no inkling about it and end up reading your comment would now have another resource to try and pursue plagiarism. Forum hero turning into an Indivine villian. 
a...its not new....i get so many visit from google when i post contest entry early...happened so many times...its annoying ....esp when i see them hunting my archives then again coming via google...searching...and funny thing is i know their IPs very well and in most of the cases even who they are
Entries displayed before or after the contest hardly matters as among the limited entires it is hard to copy and get away.
The problem is about only one thing when some undeserving entries win the contests and from last few contests I have seen some people winning the contest with even an absurdly below average post and that too when some really great entries were present. Even in a contest I won I felt, I felt one of the winners actually don't deserved winning and the post wasn't of the same quality like the other winning entries.
My point is most of the people are going to read the winning entries so it's of no value to copy and hence it doesn't matter it is displayed or not.
I guess the sponsers choose the entries which promotes them in a better way.Just that.
I missed the Indi-Pattani Deadline. Though I have completed my Post, it is in my Drafts Folder. Ditto for another contest's post that I had completed, but missed the deadline!
From the past several days I am debating what to do- whether to post my Asus entry now or as usual submit it on the deadline. 
What do you suggest? Looking for answers.
Thanks for the instant response, Anant!
Wouldn't like to missing the deadline again! 
That makes sense too, Anant! 
Wouldn't like to missing the deadline again!
Typo in my previous post- *miss*
Hi Renie..are the Indi-Pattani s declared..it was supposed to be in Delhi meet. If these are decided may we know them pls...
Hey Indiblogger, I am back to blogging! Now tell me frankly, can I submit a blogpost though The Indi-Pattani prizes were to be declared on 5/7/2014 OR till this topic ends on 25/7/2014? Which one can be considered as the last date to submit new blogposts on this topic. I'm confused.
Contest closes at 11:59 PM on 25/07/14.

Renie/ Admin : Can you please confirm ???

Submissions haven't been closed yet! Has the deadline been extended?
I don't think it has been extended. Usually submission links are open for an extra hour or so.
Great fun writing another entry for this contest.
May all our Superpowers be reality soon!
Best wishes to all.

I wrote the post long before but I didn't felt like submitting. So, I skipped this one on purpose. I will be waiting for the parameters to be announced for the judging (which I think was due yesterday). I don't find the use to post for the contests till a transparent judging system is in place.
I had to rack my brains coming up for an innovative take on this.
Combined past with future, sitting in the present time frame.
After I was done, it looked good to go.
Thanks to ASUS for this opportunity after which I've tried my hand at mystery as well.
All the best to all the participants!
The contest closed yesterday and I am surprised to see that the number of entries are less in comparison to other contests! why is that so? guesses anyone? :D
I loved writing for this contest..got a chance to unfurl my creative wings..
Less entries may be bcz ppl are not getting any free voucher..
I guess Ankit is right. Might be due to no free voucher! :P
I submitted a post for a contest after a long time! :)
