Reading AuctionBytes: Overstock.com Announces Twitter Sweepstakes

Overstock.com is running another promotion to celebrate its 10-year anniversary. The online retailer announced the start of its "Twitter Like it's 1999" sweepstakes: every day between October 1-10, 2009, Overstock.com will give away a prize on Twitter in addition to the ten prizes they'll be giving away as part of their "Daily Dig" contest at www.overstock.com. Participants must reside in the United States

To enter, participants will need to follow Overstock.com on twitter (@overstock), then visit www.overstock.com/twitter1999 each day from October 1-10, 2009 to see that day's prize and the 1999 Twitter theme. Users are then asked to tweet what they were doing in 1999, according to that day's sweepstakes theme, being sure to include the sweepstakes link and the #In1999 hash tag.

Overstock.com Chairman and CEO Patrick Byrne said, "Twitter is a fun way for us to connect with consumers. We want to give them an opportunity to take part in our 10 year celebration through the Twitterverse."
