If you take the link that image is referencing, you'll find yourself at David "The Original" Silverlight's
Community-Credit website.
I have to admit, the first time I looked at it, I wondered why I'd bother, but since GeeksWithBlogs is rolling all my blogging up there, I thought what the heck, I'll go ahead and list other stuff too. The fact that
Karl Shifflett was the one that pointed me at it was also no small impetus :) If you're doing very much in the community, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at all the points you can rack up in a month.
The points accrue toward a set of prizes that David gives away. The "Remote-controlled Hovering Space Surfer" shown above is my latest Grand Prize win from February, 2009 --- THANKS DAVID! I have previously won, in May 2008, a Grand Prize of a complete PodCast kit: Microphone, Headset, Mixer, Software, the whole deal, and in August of 2008 I came in somewhere down the list.
Just in case you're thinking that heavy bloggers or community group leaders can scoop up all the good stuff, they have a method arranged so that when you do win something your next few months is 'curved' so that you only receive a percentage of the actual points toward prizes. This works great and is well thought out!
This gives you a reference sheet too of everything you've been up to in case you need it such as for the yearly "What the heck have you been doing all year" chats.
Going along with the recent additions and changes at SilverlightCream, I'm going to work with David to automatically get some credit at Community-Credit for the blogger when a post is entered into my database.
I've found that the points I have to add myself are minimal. The majority of the points I accrue come in automatically from GWB, and it's just a fun thing to see monthly.
Go to the site, sign yourself up and see what kinds of prizes you can come up with! Check out the rest of the site as well... there's a LOT going on there, and auxiliary sites to rat around in as well.
Thanks for all the work, David!
