From a PM I just got:

Hey anguish!

Just wanted to give you and your friends a heads up. Dell will be giving away some Dell Mini's this week on Twitter. For more details, head on over to the following link:

Direct2Dell - Direct2Dell - DELL COMMUNITY

Feel free to share on the board here. =)

The entry process is quite specific but its basically just adding @DellDigitalLife and sending them a direct message. Good Luck!

Thanks for sharing!

So, here's a stupid n00b Twitter question (I literally just joined so I can enter this contest): How do I send the Tweet to DellDigitalLife? Do I just need to start it off with @DellDigitalLife and it will automatically go to the right place?

I am also confused as to how i can send a direct message to the @delldigital life, since i am following them and they do not follow me, the send direct message link doesn't work(the recipient box does not have a dropdown). As described above, So would i just type in my regular twitter feed :
@delldigitallife "quoted message for answer"

then hit update, or is there a different method that i am not seeing??

Does twitter normally...not work?

Hehe, I'm on the sweepstakes page under connect with other Mini Dell owners lol!
Anyhoo, I'm a little confused, I did steps 1 and 2, but for step 3 "How many colors are for the Dell Mini 10v netbook?" is that the question we're supposed to answer? Because it said Day 1 (when was day 1?) to July 27 to answer the daily question, does that mean there are others?

It's not a direct message they want you to send. Someone doesn't know their Twitter terms It's a reply. You just have to reply with the @ and they'll see you. Nowhere on the contest page does it say anything about a DM.
