As a mom, how does technology impact your life? Tell your story and superstar Olympian swimmer and tech savvy mom, Dara Torres, might just choose you for an amazing prize package that includes a $5000 tech makeover, incredible HP products (including the droolworthy HP Vivienne Tam edition notebook!), and a trip to see Dara compete in the US Nationals and possibly a chance to see her compete in Rome!
Seriously! This contest had me at HP Vivienne Tam edition notebook!
What do you have to do?
Easy! Go to the Moms for Simplicity website, online essay contest, and photo mosaic where moms can inspire and educate each other by sharing stories about how technology simplifies their lives.
The contest, which runs through June 16, asks moms to upload a photo to an online photo mosaic and, in 200 words or less, tell HP and Torres how they use technology to simplify their busy lives –– including digital scrapbooking, keeping in touch with friends, running a business from home, or managing a weekly schedule.
In mid-June, Torres will choose three contest winners to receive a personalized HP technology makeover, the chance to meet Torres and see her swim in the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis, and possibly the opportunity to see her compete at the FINA World Championships in Rome. How cool is that?!?
Participants will have their photo and story featured on the photo mosaic, and three will win HP products, including the HP Vivienne Tam edition notebook, HP Photosmart All-in-One printer and an HP TouchSmart PC. Additionally, winners will become “amateur mom reporters” at the U.S. Nationals, where they will see Torres compete and report their experiences on the “Moms for Simplicity” website through a series of video diaries.
And why is Dara Torres working with HP?
“Today’s moms have more demands than ever that fill our lives, and new technologies are helping to simplify our daily routines,” said Torres. “Whether I’m paying bills and staying organized, catching up on TV shows and movies while on the road, or creating fun activities with my daughter, HP technology helps make my life easier so I can do the things that matter to me the most.”
As a multitasking technology dependent mom, I have to agree that technology does help to simplify my life! Rock on Dara Torres!
