Just a reminder that five lucky winners of the Windows Style Makeover Sweepstakes will be revealed via Twitter during the BlogHer’12 conference in New York City, Aug. 2-4, so keep your eyes peeled! Plus you can enter our Pin It to Win It contest during BlogHer’12 for a chance to win a Microsoft Hardware mouse.
BlogHer is an annual gathering of female bloggers from a variety of backgrounds, ages, and skill levels. For the Style Makeover Sweepstakes, conference attendees have been given the opportunity to nominate themselves or another attendee to win an amazing prize package that includes a makeover with well-known celebrity stylist Jeannie Mai, a brand-new Samsung Series 7 tablet, and a new Microsoft Hardware mouse and keyboard.
Style Makeover Sweepstakes nominations consist of a written blog or video blog post, or a Pinterest board that explains why they deserve a makeover and what their ideal makeover would look like. Check out these fun examples: The Crunchy Wife (blog) and Bus Stop Style (Pinterest).
Meanwhile, our Pin It to Win It sweepstakes begins on Aug. 2 and runs until Aug. 4. To enter, simply log into your Pinterest account and “pin” the sweepstakes announcement image plus one image of a Microsoft Hardware mouse. 10 winners will be randomly chosen to receive a Microsoft Artist Edition or Limited Edition Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500. Winners will be notified on August 15. See details and official rules here.
We can’t wait to find out who the lucky winners are for both contests! We’ll be at the BlogHer conference this year with the Windows team at booth #132, so for those of you attending, stop by and say hi!

I would like to suggest a keyboard design for microsoft. I have yet to find a manufacturer that makes something like this yet I believe there is demand for it. I’ve been looking for an ergonomic keyboard like your natural ergonomic desktop 7000 but without the number keypad on the right. The mobile keyboard 5000 is close but is too small since it’s designed for portability. I’m looking for a keyboard for PCs at work & home that do not need to be transported anywhere. With the removal of the number keypad, the mouse can be brought in closer to a natural position and relieve some of the strain caused by having the mouse so far off to the right. There are other ergo keyboards that don’t have keypads but are full split keyboards and the touch of the keys aren’t very comfortable. For the numerical keypad, I’d rather have it separate and I can pull it in when needed or use on my left side. If you want to talk about this over the phone or in person, I’d be more than happy to. I hope you hear my suggestion and I’ll be on the lookout for this keyboard. Thanks.
