FREE Conference Call Users on Facebook
My good friend Alec Saunders send a note about a promotion they’re running with their hot Facebook application right now. The application is already free, which makes it a great way to stay in touch with friends and family over the holiday. It’s really been proving popular among many of my friends and colleagues since it was introduced. Now, every person who participates in a call lasting longer than 5 minutes, between now and midnight November 26th, will be entered into a drawing for one of Apple’s new 8G iPod Touch devices.
Alec and team will be sending an email like the one below to users today, and due to some hosting issues, he’s asked for a hand in spreading the word. You can also find more details here.
Dear FREE Conference Calls user on Facebook,
Thanksgiving marks the beginning of the holiday season, and I’m writing to tell you about a special Thanksgiving promotion we’re running for users of FREE Conference Calling. As you know, the FREE Conference Calls service is already free (except for the normal cost of your telephone call). However between now and midnight on November 26th, every call you make lasting longer than 5 minutes will earn you an entry into our drawing for a free iPod touch. We hope you’ll take advantage of this offer to stay in touch with your friends, family and loved ones at this special time of the year… and enter to win that 8G iPod Touch. Invite them to install FREE Conference Calls too, so they can have a chance to win as well.
In case you haven’t checked the application in a while, we’ve added a bunch of cool new features for moderating calls, plus a wall that you can use during, before, or after the call to post your thoughts. Shortly we’ll also have a recording feature and dial-in numbers for Europe starting with the UK.
One of the most amazing things to me, though, is the incredibly diverse ways that people are using FREE Conference Calls. For instance, we’ve seen everything from calls between Math students who want extra problem solving practice, to psychics, teleseminars, and lonely hearts just looking to chat. Oh, and of course, all kinds of people simply making meetings on the telephone call.
This is the first time we’ve tried a mass mailing like this to our users. Forgive me if it’s intrusive. If you’d like to send me mail, please feel free – my address is below. We’re interested in any and all feedback.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Alec Saunders
