YouTube user giving away 100 webcams

A YouTube user, Renetto – One of our favorites – is giving away 100 webcams for free to YouTube users that need them. That’s right. He has taken it upon himself to help YouTube build a respectable community that will help it grow.

To enter his contest which will run for 30 days, users must find a way to respond to his video with a video of their own. The problem is that people in need of a webcam probably don’t have one. So he is asking them to find a way, any way possible to make a video. Borrow a camera, use your camera phone, take a bunch of stills, animate them and write a letter.. be creative, any way you can.

Renetto will pick the 100 people who try the hardest and need a webcam the most, and he will send them a free web camera.

Sure, he might be a little nutty and not everyone exactly likes him, but you just have to respect how committed and determined he is to make YouTube a better place.

Here is the video. Good luck if you enter.
