How to Play

San Francisco Macworld Expo 2008 attendees and other iPhone owners in San Francisco January 15-17, 2008, can “pling for treasure” with iPling - the fun, free, easy-to-use mobile social expansion service for the iPhone.

To receive details on starting times and prizes, contestants need to navigate to www.ipling.com on their iPhone’s Safari browser and key in TREASURE as a General Tag on their iPling Settings page no later than 11am PT on the days of the contest.

To win, they simply need to use iPling to find the mystery “plingers” giving away the prizes.

The process is engaging and fun, it involves activating quick profiles by keying in tags associated with the prizes and sending anonymous SMS messages called “plings” to others with matching tags whose colorful icons will appear on the iPhone’s screen.

A contestant that guesses the right tag associated with a prize (e.g. "green day" might match an iTunes gift card) and is first at contacting the mystery plinger giving it away will become an instant winner!

iPling may occasionally send plings with clues, such as the screen name of the mystery plingers, to expedite the process of giving away the prizes.

You should be aware that by participating in iPling’s Treasure Hunt you are allowing other contestants to send anonymous text messages to your iPhone. If you must give up on your search, or you become overwhelmed by the excitement of the contest, just deactivate all of your profiles and you'll stop receiving plings.
