New Search Engine that Gives Away Prizes for using it

Out from Google came the mighty Blingo. Blingo is a new search engine that apparently gives away prizes just for using it. Speculation from other sources says that the site *is* legitimate (I guess google adwords is really paying off for them… not too sure how else they could afford to give away prizes). But since Blingo returns Google search results, I’ll probably use it just for that odd chance of winning something that I would not have purchased otherwise.

Is this a scam? I sure hope not. But I gave them my junk email address anyways (they claim you can win prizes without signing up, but you have more chances of winning if you do), and they sent me a verification email where I had to verify my email account. Of all the searching I do, I should surely win something, and I will definately let it be known when/if I do.

So, if anyone wants to join Blingo as a friend, and increase my chances of winning something, click on any of the links in this post.
