Blingo, anyone?

I did a forum search to see if this had been brought up yet but surprisingly it seems it hasn't been. Blingo.com - " Blingo is a search engine with a twist. Each search on Blingo is also a chance to win a prize."
That's from the website. Basically another search engine but what makes it stand out are the clean lines and the prizes - people over on A4F have won stuff. Oh, and did I mention it runs the Google search engine? We all use google anyways, so why not just take the step up?
They do have a referal system. It's not really a huge deal, but what happens is if your "friend" wins a prize, then you win the same prize. A 2 for 1. Pretty neat. Here are sample prizes
li Sony PlayStation Portable or a $300 Visa Gift Card
li Apple iPod Mini or a $200 Visa Gift Card
li One Year of Free Movies from Blockbuster.com or a $180 Visa Gift Card
li Apple iPod Shuffle or a $100 Visa Gift Card
li $25 Visa Gift Card
li Blingo Movie Ticket Certificate good for one adult admission to theatres throughout the US
The movie tickets are the most common. And with movie prices these days who would pass that up? Yeah. So if anyone wants to check it out please pm me and I'll send you a ref link asap 8)

So, the only way I can win is buy randomly searching? That's it?

Yeah i've been using blingo for a few months haven't won anything, but they say if you use it anytime you need to search your bound to win.

Keep in mind only your first 10 searches of each day can win a prize, so use them wisely.

Can you search all 10 times rapidly? Or do you have to do them every like 1 minute or something.
ajrock2000
18-08-2005 19:38:36
When I won myself, I waited till it was an hour before last win. I searched like 5 times in a row quickly, and won. ) So im guessing you can search rapidly.
