Win a Nintendo Wii or two - some very smart marketing

A fellow 9Rules site has a marvelous competition running at the moment (visit it here) that means you could win a Nintendo Wii by doing nothing more than bookmarking the site on Del.icio.us and leaving a comment. Interested? Read on...

What? How? Why?
In a cunning move the author is actually performing some stylish marketing, link building and revenue generation. Let's look at what is going on:

Outlay:
$250 Nintendo Wii x 2 = $500

Benefits:
At the time of writing, 148 comments on the site (after only a few hours of running).
Tons of bookmarks in a popular social bookmarking site - meaning more people find it and join, tell others, it spreads some more.
Backlinks galore!
People will talk about it.
More visitors = more impressions = more ad revenue.

Good luck!
