Compete for prizes (headphones and clothing) on Pinterest!

Like fashion? Like headphones? Like Pinterest?  Well, then…

A “MOMENTUM for beautiful people” contest is now in progress. Prizes are Sennheiser MOMENTUM headphones, and Drykorn clothing vouchers. Per the press release:

================================================

To enter the competition…create Pinterest mood boards that showcase designs, fashion ideas and products that they feel complement the new MOMENTUM headphones and this season’s Drykorn styles.”

How it works? Just repin one of the MOMENTUM versions with complementary clothing or accessories from Drykorn. Then, its time to exercise your good taste!

Make sure to tag all the items pinned to your board with the hashtag #MOMENTUMforbeautifulpeople – then you’re ready to submit the URL of your board to us. As inspiration, Sennheiser has created pinboards for both the MOMENTUM Black and MOMENTUM Brown including matching Drykorn items, showcasing the pure design language and vision behind the award-winning headphones.

…Four winning style boards will be chosen and each winner will receive a pair of Sennheiser MOMENTUM headphones and Drykorn vouchers worth $650.

Streaming service uses Silverlight…WHY???

Warner Archive Instant is the new streaming service of the Warner Archive (WarnerArchive.com). Film and TV enthusiasts can instantly view hundreds of rare and hard-to-find movies and TV shows, culled from the Warner Bros. library – the largest entertainment library in the world. Now is your chance to discover – and rediscover – rare movies and TV shows you can’t find anywhere else (and some favorites you can) from Warner Bros., MGM, RKO, New Line, Monogram, Allied Artists, Lorimar and more.”

Well…that’s nice.  I’m sure there are shows and movies I look forward to seeing…

“…you’ll need Silverlight powered by Microsoft…”

Wait…WHAT???

“…exact technical system requirements for Warner Archive Instant…Microsoft Silverlight installed…”

I’ll pass on this service…because:

Microsoft shuns its own Silverlight

“…Silverlight sites can’t strut their stuff in Windows RT or the Metro part of Win8…”

I’m not a fan of Adobe Flash…and, because Microsoft seems to lack commitment to it, less of one of Silverlight.

Although…they do have Black Belt Jones
