Flip Cam Winners!
I feel like I’ve said the words, “This was the hardest decision we’ve ever had to make” before, but this time I really, really mean it! We received over 40 wonderful entries for our Flip Cam Contest. We truly thank everyone for contributing and for your kind words!
In the end, after reading the emails over and over, we finally figured out the three lucky winners.
Sam Liu - Just like us, he is all about community! We love it!
“I love surpass because I can develop on it without a hitch. From Ruby on Rails to my hosted Facebook application (Export Photos 2.0), things just work! I’ve only had downtime once in my four years with surpass (2 years sharing with a friend, the past 2 years I bought my own plan). And when I have any problem, surpass staff get to me quickly! I recall one instance where I locked myself out of my account (made a password I forgot)—my email was returned within the hour. I am active on the startup scene and was actually overjoyed to see TipJoy (a YC-funded company) making inways especially in the newsletter of my favorite hosting company. Surpass is perfect for startup folk like me who need a fairly-priced and reliable shared host for development needs. I haven’t used and therefore can’t vouch for the dedicated services, but certainly they remain in future considerations also.
Best of all, Surpass does stuff like this in the Surmunity (love it!)—my first site hosted here was a forum board for my school (previously hosted on a now-defunct British host)—my friends appreciated the speed and reliability increase. Some 70 classmates pitched in a couple bucks each to pay for the first two years of hosting with Surpass. From the start, it was all about preserving a community, and after I started hosting here, another vibrant community was what I found. I was really glad to be hosted by a company that engaged with its hostees.”
Steve James - We chose him because of the excitement and the unknown!
“I’ll secure and strap on that camera and ride down a technical downhill section in the Sierra Nevada mountains while explaining my positive experience with Surpass over the many years I’ve been with you. It should be a rush! “
Tad Dreis - Instrumental, indeed!
“My video would feature me playing harmonica, mandolin, and hi-hat cymbal (AT THE SAME TIME!) and singing an original song expressing my joy at the value and ease of use I’ve enjoyed since hosting my original music website with Surpass.
I’m a writer and musician, not a techie. With Surpass’s competitive rates and intuitive interface, my hosting plan can grow as my audience grows, and I’m able to manage my online presence without a degree in computer science.”
We’ll be sending off the Flip cams next week and will be excited to see their video entries next!
Once again, thank you to everyone who contributed.
