Alright guys, here we go. Like the tweet said, to enter this contest, all you have to do is retweet this tweet…
http://twitter.com/Blaq/status/21778628386
…ensuring that the #BlaqIsComing and #SuperApp tags are there and visible (beware of twitlonger links), and make sure you’re following @Blaq, @kfow35 and @Hamrick.
That’s all there is to it! The contest will run until 8:00 PM EDT tomorrow night, Sunday, August 22nd, and five winners will be selected at random from those that qualify.
Like the title says, with the small amount of time we have left until Blaq™ needs to be submitted to App World, this will be the last and final pre-launch contest for beta testing invites. If you don’t win this weekend, though, don’t get discouraged. There will be plenty of giveaways and contests for lots of goodies after launch as well.
So what are you waiting for? Get to retweeting! Best of luck to everyone, and we can’t wait to have you on our beta team!
All the best, and All. Blaq. Everything.


If you haven’t had a chance to test out Blaq for yourself now is your chance. It’s an awesome twitter application for blackberry. So what are you waiting for? Retweet to get in on the action!
Already done everything, just get my finger crossed!!!
By the way, there are two mistakes about this contest
1st, the shrink URL has not been supported by your domain now, can’t open it via shrinked one
2nd, the @Hamrick link on this page is actually the same with @Blaq
lol, will I get some extra chance to win?
@ericube
Thanks, man! Got the Twitter handle links fixed, and the shortened link seems to be working fine for me. Tried from several of the RTs. Thanks for the heads up, though!
How am I gonna do if I have my account locked? :O ?
Hi,

Looks good man. I’m ready for it
Ready to use it!
Thanks Rystnet for sharing this with me. I hope that I am able to Beta Test it for my BB.
People pay me very good money to test out apps My clients have been RIM and Microsoft to say but a few this is my job i test! yet look briefly at those who are testing have little of no experience and only have a few hundred followers on twitter? and this is your testing base? it concerns me a little that you have declined my services and not responded to my emails.
I was offering my services for free becasue i understood your vision.
I wish you the very best.
Sorry you’re upset David!
As with all of our other contests, winners were selected completely at random. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot to test and provide feedback.
It’s greatly valuable for us to have not only the opinions of professional, experienced testers (which we do have and who were hand-picked), but also the feedback from common, everyday users — i.e. what will be the majority of our customer base.
We wish everyone could be a tester and win our contests, but then what would be the point, right?
We in no way ignored any emails from you intentionally, either, and if that was your impression, I’m truly sorry. I looked for your email by searching for both “david” and also the way you spelled it, but couldn’t find anything.
If you’d like to discuss things further, please contact me again at rh [at] ryanhamrick [dot] com and I’d be happy to chat.
Thanks!
I want to try this app plz thanks
