It’s time to join my first contest in 2009. This is the first Twitter contest organized by John Chow dot com.

The contest is going to be really simple to enter and John Chow offer some really nice prizes up for grabs, starting with a $497 membership into the Yaro Stark’s Blog Mastermind program. He’ll add more prizes in the coming days but this will be a good start. If you wish to offer a prize in exchange for some press, send him an email. He’s looking for big prizes that cost hundreds of dollars.

Blog Mastermind is by far the most complete course on blogging that I have ever came across. If you follow the six month course, there should be no reason why you couldn’t make full time income with part time blogging. Yaro has students making up to $30,000 per month with blogs valued at $5 million. John Chow highly recommend anyone who’s thinking about making money by blogging to enroll in this course. Here’s how you can win it.

1. Follow John Chow on Twitter

I’m completely fascinated by Twitter right now—in much the same way I was by blogging two years ago.

If you haven’t tried it yet, Twitter is a site that allows you to post one-line messages about what you’re currently doing—via the web interface, IM, or SMS. You can limit who sees the messages to people you’ve explicitly added to your friends list, or you can make the messages public.

What Twitter does, in a simple and brilliant way, is to merge a number of interesting trends in social software usage—personal blogging, lightweight presence indicators, and IM status messages—into a fascinating blend of ephemerality and permanence, public and private.

It seems that everyone is atwitter about Twitter. Twitter has grown 600% in the past year, according to co-founder Biz Stone. Aside from telling the world what they're doing every blessed moment, people often use Twitter to drive traffic to Web sites or to promote products and services. But users have begun adapting it for a variety of others tasks.

I'm still wondering why not many Indonesian Blogger using Twitter. We are still far behind comparing to other countries such as Malaysia, Australia and India.
