SXSW Interactive Loves Free Stuff

SXSW is by far the largest event Ice Cream Man does all year.  This year we have the lofty, but possible, goal of giving away over 15,000 ice cream treats.  This will be done with a few different vehicles and pushcarts that will roam all over Austin.

This year we have also been able to give away a whole lot more than just ice cream treats.  With the help of Nokia we are going to give away a bunch of Nokia Nuron 5230 smart phones.  There are silly requirements that must be accomplished after finding the appropriate Ice Cream Man vehicle.  For example:

* Recite Pi to 10 decimal places
* Do your best Wookie impression
* Find a mountable bottle opener

In addition to these new smart phones we will be giving away 2 Nokia Booklet 3Gs as Grand Prizes. You can be sure what you have to do to win these will not be as easy as telling us when Nokia was founded.

In addition to all this free tech gear Knowmore.com is making it possible for us to give away a bunch of rare Dead Weather 12″ singles.

Follow @icecreamman on Twitter to find out the What, When, and Where of the giveaways.
