Congratulations to the Newly Certified Viral Marketing Scientists

 

For April Fool’s day I launched the Institute for Viral Marketing Scientist and had a little contest for people to become “Certified Viral Marketing Scientists” by getting “credits” from their friends on Twitter. After a week, the top scientist won a bunch of prizes from the very cool IVMS sponsors.

 

In that week, over 900 votes were cast; 13 participants earned the requisite 20 credits (or more) and became certified scientists.

The winner, Wombat5277 received 166 credits in under a week and had this to say about winning:

Being named the top Viral Marketing Strategist in my class is without a doubt the highest honor I have ever received. I make an oath to only use my new IVMS status for the betterment of my fellow man. Thank you.
