Zii Summit Videos


3 ZiiLife invites up for grabs!


You must have heard of the recently announced ZiiLife by ZiiLabs. ZiiLife consists of mainly the ZiiJournal (interactive photo timeline), ZiiDisk (1GB of online storage) and ZiiMeet (IM client). So far, the thing that shocked me about the ZiiLife is that ... it actually works! Given Creative's track record in software development, it is certainly a breeze using the ZiiMeet and ZiiDisk. I am giving out 3 ZiiLife invites (3 months ZiiLife Beta Plan)! All you have to do is to tell me why you deserve the invite and your username at epiZENter (you should have one) in an email and send it to kingone@gmail.com. Contest ends 10 January 2010 :)
