Just wanted to share with Twitter users in Utah or Wyoming, a twitter account @utahfoxrep. I'm looking for some MX fan followers in thesestates. Once the follower count grows a bit I will give away some Fox and Shift MX products to followers and fans of the brands. Maybe some scavenger hunt prizes? (ie. Left a set of Fox goggles at "x riding spot").

Let me know what you guys think and spread the word! The bigger this gets the more prizes and more I can pull off!

Can't you just post this on twitter where the twitter users would see it?

Not that easy, only current followers would see it. Trying to reach out and find others in the area to spread the word and hand out some freebies!

Follow all the pros and magazine/web sites and you will show up in their stuff as well. Then the people that follow them as well can see you.

I guess I still don't understand the point of twitter... and I'm in IT. Smile Why don't you just offer your prizes up here and cut out the middle man?

Guess that explains why I have no interest in getting a twitter account. Smile

I have a computer in my pocket and don't have a reason for getting a twitter account. Don't have a MyFace account either.

I don't understand what that has to do with twitter or facebook, As I said, I have a computer in my pocket now (Android Phone) and I sometimes use it exclusively for days with no need for twitter or facebook.

Thanks, I actually asked the Fox/Shift athletes to retweet. So far Chad Reed has retweeted it.

I haven't, didn't want to piss anyone off with multiple posts. Think its ok to do so? I know people can get touchy around here!

Don't want to look like I'm spamming.

Except when all those interweb people decide to use flash for their interweb sites and Apple Ipads don't have flash. As far as standards in general, yes, it would be nice if everyone follows open standards, especially the big guys... "Microsoft".

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure I will never have a twitter or myface account, just out of principle if for no other reason.

For a restaurant menu to just show up on your device, all you need is the internet and a browser, which already exists and works on every internet capable device in the world. It is already being used in many restaurants. The restaurant has wi-fi that, once connected, pops up the menu when the browser is opened. No monopoly, no software needed on the phone, other than a browser, and almost zero cost to implement.

I think you'll accomplish the mission better this way. Besides, who cares about the bitchers?

Heh heh, that's the reason I am not interested in twitter. I can't get a thought below 140 characters. It may be 157 characters of shit but it's still more than 140 characters. Smile I absolutely hate SMS texting. Email forever!

That's a good idea, but it would suck for people like my grandparents who don't have cell phones or even a home computer. Not everyone has joined the digital age. They have no need for these things.

Why would it suck for your grandparents? They could just use the regular menu like I do.
