Salutations and thank you for visiting The Symposium. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or sign up to receive email notifications of new posts. Also, don't forget to take a look at the current giveaways that The Symposium is hosting!


Book lovers, have you been dying to get your hands on Amazon’s Kindle? If your answer is yes then you might like to know that GetGlue, the social networking tool that sticks with you, is giving you the chance to win a Kindle 2 free. There is no purchase necessary to enter, you don’t even have to be a GetGlue member to enter and win either. Although, being a member does give you more chances to win.

To enter, all you need to do is follow @glue_genie on Twitter and tweet this message:

Entered to win a Kindle from @glue_genie and www.getglue.com (rules: http://bit.ly/freekindle)

Once you do that you’re entered to win. GetGlue members have the chance to earn multiple entries by advertising GetGlue once a day on Twitter or by getting friends to join GetGlue as well. Each entry betters your odds of winning and GetGlue will also be giving away $25 Amazon.com Gift Certificates to the four people who have the most points/entries. For more rules and details be sure to visit their blog.

Needless to say, I’ve already entered. I can’t see buying a Kindle for myself right now sadly. Winning one would be wonderful however. I’d probably be glued to the thing 24/7 though. :)

Will you be entering? My GetGlue username is, predictably, joanana (same as my Twitter and Last.fm accounts). So be sure to add me to your friends if you’re a member.
