Video competition


It's the logical next step in singing competitions — just compare videos on YouTube. Sweet Adelines is offering a $1,000 prize for the best a cappella song by a solo female singer, "best" being defined as the most views, a kind of bizarre measure, since it rewards those who upload their videos earlier, plus it's not that hard to manipulate. To enter, upload your video and then create a "video reply" to SA's promo video on YouTube.

Another bad feature: the prize is in the form of one of those horrible Visa gift cards, which are a pain to keep track of and tend to be chock-full of hidden charges and traps. Hint to Sweet Adelines: next time, just cut a check.
