Mobile App Developers Award - Off-topic

I received an Email few days ago from a telecom operator developers community based in Saudi Arabia (developers.mobily.com.sa).
They are running a free to participate Mobile App contest with 3 cash prizes, each prize is equal to approximately 26k USD.
The good part is, according to their terms & conditions, anyone from all around the world can participate.
I thought it would be appropriate to at least this share this bit of information over XDA.
I couldn't find a suitable forum category other than the off-topic
Awards Website:
developers.mobily.com.sa/award

Just an update,
Contest Apps submission is going to open for 10 days only starting from this coming Sunday.

Hey all,
I've been an XDA member for a little while now and love the work that comes out of here. This year I'm working with Mozilla and the Open Video Alliance to put on the 3rd annual Open Video Conference.
In addition to a lot of great open web and open source projects this year we are offering a Jailbreak Station. It will be a place where attendees can bring their iOS device, have it jailbroken and learn the benefits and risks of having a jailbroken device.
We're looking for volunteers who are hack savy and experienced to volunteer to operate this jailbreaking station.
Benefits of Volunteering:
1. Free OVC T-Shirt
2. Free food!
3. Complimentary registration
4. A chance to network (lots of great industry folks at this event)
5. Be a part of the team and help spread the word on open source, hacking and being a more informed consumer
Supporters of this year include New York Law School, Zencoder, Mozilla and we're pleased to announce that Google has recently joined as a supporter. Many, many more commercial and non-commercial companies/orgs will be represented here too.
We need you! If you're interested please PM me Mod edit: removed email
This does not belong here. Try i-phone developers.

Zurker : A New Social Networking Site

Can a cooperative social networking site that allocates shares between users take on Facebook? Zurker's founder Nick Oba thinks so.
Zurker's USP is that users are "coowners and investors" in the platform. By joining Zurker and inviting your friends, you get issued with "vShares". A vShare is a virtual share which you can monitor on your profile. You can buy additional vShares for $1 (£0.62) and one vShare is the equivalent to ownership of 1/1,000,000th of the Zurker in your territory -- eg Zurker UK or Zurker USA.
The project isn't promising anyone to break the bank or turn into a millionaire overnight. Zurker just gives that opportunity, but it doesn't promise anything. On the other hand, the chances for making some good money with Zurker are not bad and the uniqueness of the project makes everyone succeed together.
So, In a way Zurker promises to award you real shares and a chance to earn some free money if it ever strikes gold.

I was the Editor in Chief of Lovable Lumia, a fan site for Windows Phone. We had more than 20 lakh, unique visitors, from all over the world. We provided exclusive news that attracted so many fans. Many articles got featured on famous sites like Windows Central and MSPowerUser ({Mod edit}). With the demise of Lumia devices, the site was not managed and sadly hosting got expired and Godaddy deleted the entire site. But, my social media handles exist as proof of the existence of Lovable Lumia. ({Mod edit})
Also, developed award-winning Windows Phone apps and won so many flagship devices from Microsoft and Nokia like Lumia 1020, Lumia 1520, Lumia 950 XL, etc. Chennai Auto app was featured in Windows Central. ({Mod edit})
A few years back, I made a switch to Android flagship. Have a habit of knowing everything coming up in the technology world. I have a huge interest in Photography and Technology.
I had a chance to watch the Reno launch event on YouTube live. I was totally impressed with the top-notch specifications. Initially, I was planning to get another brand flagship and changed my decision after watching this keynote. Ordered a higher variant of OPPO Reno 10x Zoom on the very first day, without watching any actual reviews. When the device was delivered, I was completely satisfied and started exploring the Camera and Software. I made the right decision. I don't like stock Android with fewer features. ColorOS 6 came inbuilt with Oppo Reno 10x Zoom. It was very good.
I joined the ColorOS community (now OPPO Community) out of interest to contribute more for the users. One fine day, ColorOS SuperFan recruitment began. I've opted for that and I was selected too. And, started being an active member of the ColorOS Community. I became Pre-Creators Community Member.
ColorOS Pioneer recruitment began on some other day. With huge excitement, I've participated and won a free trip to the ColorOS 7 Launch Event. I can't even believe that it happened. As I said earlier, I have a habit of watching launch events. Now, I was invited to a Global Launch Event. Can you believe it? I asked myself. Yes! I won a trip to ColorOS 7 Launch Event and that made all the difference. Contributed to ColorOS 7 with valuable feedback and articles.
Here's my experience thread
{Mod edit}
Within months of joining the ColorOS Community, I was promoted as Creators Team Member.
I have written 90+ threads that gained me 225+ fans in ColorOS Community. My articles crossed 200000+ views. That was a great achievement in a smaller span of time.
Used to participate in ColorOS Contests and won many contests. Last year, I was awarded as the "Emerging Creator of ColorOS Community".
As a token of appreciation, ColorOS sent me an Honorary Certificate for my journey in Creators Planet.
Never seen such an awesome and inspiring Community. For sure, you'll grow with the community if you're active.
Published unboxing videos of OPPO F17 Pro ({Mod edit}) in YouTube.
My passion is all about exploring new and future things in Technology. Being a phone addict, I used to dig deep into new technologies. That said I've covered multiple things that are introduced like new chipsets, features, apps, device launches, software updates, reviews, etc in my articles. And that received tremendous response.
