20 exclusive beta invitations to RealPlayer to give away right now!
Hopefully most of you would be familiar with RealPlayer, the cross-platform media player which plays numerous multimedia formats such as MP3, MPEG4, QuickTime and Windows Media.

Orange Pay-Off: 15 seconds to be a sexy, weird, dancer
Orange has launched its Pay-Off contest and is inviting its customers to submit 10-15 second video clips of themselves either trying to prove that they’re the sexiest person alive (Face-off), are the best/craziest dancer (Dance-off), or are just plain weird but couldn’t muster a longer clip on YouTube (Weird-off).
