pogo_iphone_stylusThe makers of the “Pogo Stylus”, available at Thinkgeek for $15, are holding a competition for users to draw and doodle on their iPhones.  The contest runs through July 1st, at which point they’ll declare  a winner of the $500 cash prize.

The only requirements are an iPhone and a Pogo Stylus (although I’m not really sure how they’ld know).  Given the recent hype around the New Yorker Cover drawn with Brushes, I can expect they’re going to get some stellar entries.

Ten One Design Fosters iPhone Creativity with $500 Art Challenge

Draw Anything with the Pogo Stylus and You Could Win $500 Cash


Montclair, NJ – The creators of the Pogo Stylus, the first iPhone- and iPod touch-compatible stylus, have announced its $500 Art Challenge as a way to encourage Pogo Stylus users to draw, sketch and doodle with their capacitive touch screen tool. One winner, who will receive $500 cash, will be selected based on artistic skill, presentation and creativity/originality.

“We love to see our customers using the Pogo Stylus creatively,” said Peter Skinner, Ten One Design CEO. “This contest is a catalyst to get our supporters thinking outside the box, and we can’t wait to see what they come up with.”

Submissions can be sent to [email protected] or uploaded at www.tenonedesign.com/contest and are welcome from any Pogo Stylus user – no naked fingers allowed. All entries, which will be featured in the Ten One Design Art Gallery, must be in by 11:59 p.m. EST on July 1, 2009. A panel of judges will select one winner who will be announced on Ten One Design’s Web site on July 5. For a complete list of rules, please visit www.tenonedesign.com.
