Apple iPhone 5C accessories

The new iPhones are flying off the shelves and according to the latest reports today, Apple has already set a new record - selling 9 million phones in just 3 days. They have actually sold out their initial supply of the iPhone 5S.

The iPhone 5C is the cheaper model which comes with a plastic back in 5 colours and cover in 6 colours. It has an A6 chip, compared to the A7 chip on the iPhone 5S. However, it shares common features with the 5S including an 8MP iSight camera and 4-inch Retina display, running on the new iOS 7.

The 16GB model is available for £469 and the 32GB model for £549. Check out the Green phone with the blue cover.

However, if this is not to your taste, a range of accessories are already available online including more formal wallet type and flip cases. Check out the Mobilefun site which has among the largest collection of accessories for the iPhone 5C.

The prizes are amazing. Three lucky guys will each win a Gold award, a Silver Award and a Bronze award. Each award is made up of a number of special deals brought together to make up a superb package. For example, the Gold award is "the ultimate business blog package", which has everything you would need to start up a new blog starting with a brand new Logo design from David Airey himself. You also get:

With loads of other amazing bonus prizes, the chances of winning is much higher than others competitions I have entered, where only one guy wins. I would be delighted if I can get a watercolour print from Ed Roach Watercolours collection.

Go to the anniversary prize draw on David's blog for more information.

Rate your day

One way to make your blog stand out from among the thousands on the net is to make it different. That's easy to say but the question is how to make it different. Of course the content and design are important but some bells and whistles can definitely make your visitors sit up and take note. I am talking about Widgets.

One fun Widget I just came across is the 'I Rate My Day' widget. This widget allows you to share your feelings with visitors to you blog.



Right now they are running the "IRateMyDay Contest!". Winners stand to win a Microsoft Zune media player. Check out their site for more info.
