Duke dollars?

What about implementing the dukedollar reward system from the general Java boards here?

FYI to DD newbies:

“How do I benefit, or what can I win?
You can win a small gift from the JDC staff, such as a Duke wristwatch or a Duke Commuter coffee mug.”

I’d do A LOT for a Java mug or a t-shirt or a cap!

Now and here you may become a GOD by constantly posting nonsense (I did!)…

(ok, I personally know people with ~100 DD who are complete idiots…)

For some reason, I’ve already got the [java] mug (in tasteful black). Can’t remember why or when :).

Not only do I have an iPlanet mug and a black Sun Microsystems t-shirt, I’m also the proud owner of a beautiful cyan Java “5 year birthday celebration” mug. :slight_smile:

Now if only I could scam a JavaRing off someone…

Now that would be a good prize :).

…even if it’s entirely useless for anyone who doesn’t work in a lab/office with the readers ;D

Where does a DD reward system exist ???

And the fact its scary to have all my “personal information” on a device that small. I would be guarenteed to lose the sucker within the first week of having it, and out goes all credit cards/passwords/keys etc…that would be just greeeat

No one asked you to save that kind of data :wink:
Though saving URLs doesn’t help too much either…

Well…It just so happens that I have a few left but you would need to get it resized as they are pretty large.

Do you have a few spare reader/writers as well :slight_smile: ?

In case Chris answers this with a ‘yes’, does “spare” imply free??
If so, I wouldn’t mind having one of those :smiley: (<- “cheezy”)

I believe thats a modified iButton - www.ibutton.com

Not sure how he got the logo on there though.

I’d like anything from Sun or the Java people. I used to have whats called computer hat day Friday. Some jobs have a dress down day. Some of our staff used to where Hawaiin shirts. I instead wore nice looking caps with computer logos. I have an Amiga cap and an SGI cap. Sadly, computer hat Friday went away. :frowning:

Of course the Java screensavers area just had a contest giving away free t-shirts to whoever submitted screensavers for the Java One conference. Didn’t have time to submit anything to be proud of. :frowning:
