I have started employing new techniques on finding sweeps and entering things. One is I am focusing less on IWG and more on dailies and one time entries and now am doing twitter retweets and twitter parties. I have won a ton of stuff from twitter since starting this!

Another is I will do a search for a specific prize, example, I wanted to win the phineas and ferb game for evan for his bday, or anything phineas and ferb, so I did a search for "enter to win" + phineas and ferb and set it to search the past 24 hours, found a few blog sweeps and won a ps3 copy off of one of them. I have found it helpful to set up a googles bookmarks page of all of the blog contests that have daily retweets for entries and putting them all there and just going down that, easy way to get lots of entries!!

Also, often companies give items to more than 1 blogger to do a sweeps, so if I see something I like on a super popular blog with like 1k entries, I will do a search for that item and find a blog with sometimes UNDER 100 entries. Very neat!
