Giveaways to Goose your Traffic?

Scott Bourne is giving away a Drobo (a fantastic SAN-type storage systems) to folks who link to his site http://www.mydl.me or who follow him on Twitter (and Retweet his offers).

http://scottbourne.com/search/drobo talks more about it, and you can follow him on Twitter at http://twitter.com/ScottBourne.

We’ll see if anyone remembers him even a month after he stops giving away things…
