Eat to Win… an iPhone! (in In Other Food News)

Admit it, you really want an iPhone (almost as much as Mary wants ice cream), but like me there’s no way you can afford one. Check this out: Viddler.com is running an awesome video contest this month called MealToday. If you post a video in the MealToday group telling about (and hopefully showing) your best meal of the day, you are entered for a chance to win an iPhone or an HD Camcorder! It’s really easy to enter, since you can record your video with your computer’s webcam.

I haven’t entered yet, but once I shake that camera-shy feeling, we’re hoping to put together a WC Dish team MealToday. Keep an eye out for that.

What’s a MealToday?

Here’s our buddy Colin describing the contest:

If you haven’t heard of Viddler.com, here’s the deal: this is a social video website based in the Philly area! As on YouTube and other video sites, you can upload and watch cool videos, but Viddler has a bunch of really cool features nobody else has. You can record videos on the site straight from your webcam, leave comments and video responses on the timeline, and upload really big, high quality video (take advantage of that FIOS you just had installed!).

WC Dish’s own David Speers wrote up a great profile on Viddler a while ago on his Phillypreneurs blog. Check it out: The Rocky Balboa of Online Video

Comment Guidelines

Be Respectful. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?: Although the old saying, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," is swell, we encourage constructive feedback (ie, be polite), and recommend backing-up your comments with evidence/witnesses.
Be Honest. Look where it got Abe Lincoln. Well, before the evening at the theater.: We don't recommend complaining just for the sake of it (see number 1), but if you have a legitimate comment, it should be shared. Also, don't hesitate to disagree with other comments, even if your opinion is in the minority. If patrons aren't honest about their experiences, restaurants won't know that there is room for improvement. And there always is.
Be Specific. "The food was good" doesn't cut it.: Each dining experience is unique, so if a dining experience moves you in any way, by all means, share the details. Choose the sensory details that impacted your experience the most and describe them in your postings. Other foodies will gobble it up—literally.
Be Concise. 'Nuf said.: What? We thought it was pretty clear the first time.
Be Helpful. Sort of like how the elves and reindeer help Santa.: Will what you have to say improve the restaurant's ability to provide impeccable service and improve the dining experience for others (again, see number 1)? If so... help away.
Show a Little Pride. No Jane or John Does please.: If you are too embarrassed to put your name as the commenter, you probably should re-evaluate your comments (you know the drill... see number 1). If you have sensitive information that you feel needs to be passed along, please use your best judgment and e-mail it to us to avoid public posting. We don't want you to have any post-post regrets.
Don't Name Names. Let's not get too personal here.: We know you want to share your experiences, both good and bad, but this isn't the place to publicly condemn or praise individual people. Feel free to comment on "the service", "the chef", or "the staff", but any positive or negative mention of specific names will be moderated.
