A friend emailed me today, saying I can get an Apple iPod Video for free. ("Get an iPod... FREE!") True to my skepticism about these things, I raised an eyebrow and almost ignored the email.
Xpango
Almost.

After an hour or so, I shrugged, deciding to click on the link she gave me. Why not? I thought.I've got nothing to lose, right?

The link went to Xpango. When the page loaded, my first thought was "Hm. Nice colors. Sleek layout. Nice." Ahahaha. Of course, my web designer brain toggled into action again. Attracted by the nice website design, I read on. As it turns out, I can get an Apple iPod for free. Not only that, but I can also get a Creative Zen Vision, a Nokia N-series cellphone, and/or the new Xbox 360 Elite Edition... all for free.

Well, free in terms of cash, anyway. What you actually have to do to get them gadgets -- there's a whole list of them, not just the ones I wrote down -- is either (a) buy stuff from the products they got there (also techie stuff), (b) visit and/or buy from Xpango's sponsors, or (c) invite friends to sign up in Xpango. Of course, we'll all go for the third option first. When a friend joins the program, you get 1 credit to your name,when that friend tries something out on Xpango.

Okay. Here's the cool part: you don't need a hundred gazillion credits to get a gadget. For example, I want the 60 gig Creative Zen Vision W, and I can get it for only 26 credits. That means I only need 26 of my friends to sign up under my name! Cool, huh? And if you change your mind and decide you want a cellphone instead of an XBox, you can change your selected gift anytime. As long as it hasn't been delivered to you yet. Hehe.

I browsed their FAQs and their other pages, and soon enough, I was convinced. I signed up, and I just brought my friend one step closer to getting her gadget.

And so, my friends, if you want to try it like I did, click on this link to Xpango, browse around, and register! Oh, and please do me a favor and put my referrer number, 90472425, as your referrer.

You got nothing to lose by doing this anyway, right? :)
