You’re a winner!

I got a call this evening from the folks at Knowitall.org.  I had been collaborating with them on a couple of projects, and had incorporated Knowitall resources in my Google Earth talk last week.  It wouldn’t be unusual for them to call.  I had actually exchanged a couple of e-mails with someone from their office earlier in the day, trying to set up a conference call with one of their developers.  It was unusual for them to call me at home in the evening.

Turns out I’d won a prize.  I was the 9,999,999th person to visit the website.  I won a T-Shirt for my runner-up status.  The 10,000,000th visitor is a media specialist somewhere in the state, and she won an i-Pod.  I guess I should have hit reload just one more time.
