Yeah, That's Cool... BUT...

Hi Maisie,

While you're tucking your kids in bed, photos from today's adventures are being uploaded to the Web for your friends and family to see. The Eye-Fi Share Video lets you send photo and video memories straight from your camera, to your home computer or the Web, wirelessly. You don't even have to turn on your computer for the magic to happen.

This is a nice start. Yes, this sounds like a product my readers and I would be interested in. But then:

Goodyblog is giving away Eye-Fi cards to 2 lucky moms – a $79 value! After you snap photos of your kids' birthday or video from their soccer game, simply turn on your camera when you come home and photos – and videos - will automatically upload to your computer and to your Facebook, Kodak Gallery, Shutterfly, or Snapfish page. Eye-Fi has 25+ Web sites that you can choose from.

I thought I would send you the link in case your readers want to enter or tweet about it, http://www.goodyblog.com/. Let me know if I can send you more information.

Um, yeah - it's a contest with an intriguing prize. But both my time and blog real estate are limited. Tell me again why I'm being asked to give another website free publicity?

I understand that this pitch was not about giving me a product to review - I'm OK with that. But tell me again - what's in it for me? Not even an offer of a reciprocal link.
