At last got my post up for this contest - on a topic of interest to all of us - The education system. Next I need to attack the other contest. Hopefully I will be back closer to the deadline to take another crack at this contest.

It's great to see the flood of contests :) ..

Now what does 'interaction' mean here? any one any idea?

the selection criteria shall include, without  limitation: (i) content generated by such Eligible Applicants on their Entries; and  (ii) relevance, creativity and interaction.thanks in advance!

Pooja Pradeep

Interactions means they wil check how your READERS react to your post and how you will reply to them. This is the INTERACTION they speak aboutSmile

Ranjith

@ Pooja I think that isn't really the case. Interaction has nothing to do with comments, as stated by Vineet in one of the earlier contests. Interaction refers to the extenmt to which your post seems to speaks out and interact with the raeder. It needs to be something full of life having a voice of its own. That is what it means. And interaction can be achieved by making it something more than a monotonous narration... by asking questions and so on...

Oh!! MY bad.. Sorry Alaka jhi!!Undecided

worthy comments and response, both will count, but even one worthy  comment can be useful, they must be having some percantage of wightage on that.

Alaka Yeravadekar

Hmm.. so this is not about good content. You have to promote your post like mad, go round commenting on others' work, and hope others will comment on it..sigh.. :(

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

No No Alaka jhi. There isn't anything like thatSurprised. It means, they'll see if you actually RESPOND to your readers. If they have any doubt you have to clarify and suchLaughing.

The INTERACTIONS part is not really importantSmile. WRITING BEST and more than all PARTICIPATION is importantLaughing

Tha isn't really teh case @ Alaka SEe some of teh previous contests winners. Even those posts which had single digited votes and comments have won. What you write is the thing that matters the most.

Hi all, I know it's a silly question but just wanted to have some opinions.
Does the topic ask for the ONE thing that we would like to change, Or can we write about multiple things that we would like to change around us??
The heading reads- "If you could change something.... what would 'it' be", the topic reads- "what you would want to change". So it seems, we are being asked about any ONE particular thing that we would like to change. Isn't it?? Or can we write about more than one things that we would like to change??

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

I think it asks for one thing. You will probably lose focus if you talk about mutliple things.

Shantinath Chaudhary

@TheFool: hmmm, thanks, it seemed to be that too. Thanks for responding.

Arvind Passey

'ONE' isn't specified anywhere.

So if you're confident and creative enough, go ahead and include the entire universe!

Let me explain... if I say: "Yes, what I'd like to change is all that we see right now." And then you can go ahead and include everything!

I'm perplexed... but I think I'm not entirely wrong. :)

Shantinath Chaudhary

Anybody having any idea what this particular selection criteria means- 
"content generated by such Eligible Applicants on their Entries;" ??? Does it simply means "the quality of content of the post"?? hmmm, these legal terms are so puzzling.... Why do they aim to put forward riddles in every sentence they can :/

TF Carthick

So that you don't put a case on them if you don't get a prize.

Nice discussion going on friends. Well I posted my post for this contest with simple things I do myself. May be craziness that I posted as an article and shared, but after  posting it, I loved to read it again and again

Vineet Rajan

Stayfree has been very excited with the entries that have come pouring in and wants to talk to bloggers on twitter and feature some posts on their facebook wall along with creating a tab on their facebook page! 

So check their page if you haven't already, and tweet your entry with the hashtag : #voiceofchange . The hashtag earlier was #timetochange but it has been changed yesterday! 

Ranjith

@ Vineet A question needs to be answered by you: Should the things that we write about be centered around women or can they be anything in general?

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

It has been answered RanjithSurprised

Sorry Undecided Did not look at that reply. Thanks for the reply @ Vineet! Smile

 So the voice of change can mean what have we done to contribute to change and not about what we aim to change in time? Or is it both? Clarify anyone?

Arvind Passey
from Delhi |

Could be both... if you've already made a substantive contribution to bringing about a major change it will certainly be worth writing about. And it is quite possible that you may have a strategic plan that involves moving and shaking things around... even this will be worth writing about.

I have a query. I'd like to submit an entry but I've written that article as a guest post for Cybernag, a blogger friend. She is planning to put it up on her blog within a couple of weeks - by about 3rd or 4th April. Would that post be accepted by Stayfree?

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

She has to submit it on IndiBloggerSmileand I think the IndiTeam should be informed of thisSurprised.

Moreover, its better if you yourself post itUndecided. Its better to avoid risksSmile

Pooja Pradeep

Have already posted my entry...more in the hope of having more people read it than would otherwise be the case:). Btw, I keep seeing things about details to be filled in a form but did not see any form to fill in - in the Terms and Conditions - while submitting the entry. Can anyone enlighten me as to what that is?
