Viral Marketing bites man

I've tried to avoid online marketing ploys in general... there's only so much "g3n3ric vi4gra" that you can cope with being offered each day.

But today I was lured in nicely with a very clean viral marketing program from Powerbook Medic on twitter.

On offer is a nice pre-owned and refurbed Macbook Pro - just for re-tweeting about the give-away. Blogging about it or contributing to the comments on their blog provide two other ways to enter.

So why did this pique my interest over all the other internet marketing slush? Well, thegear on offer was the main draw, I'll admit. But also they appear to have kept this entirely clean and viral - no spam emails in sight and you're rewarded for tweeting/blogging about the company.
