This contest is the latest in a series of contests hosted on Facebook to "prepare" our users for the unveiling of our new website where companies will host contests or a Request for Ideas (RFI). These RFIs will present challenges to youZingit users to solve business problems to improve products and services, create names or slogans for new products, packaging ideas and a host of other tasks.
