“The internet has a some time, has become the major channel for launches of products and services. The Handcase, greater industry of software for Palm in the world, also chosen by the internet to launch its first advertising campaign.” Thus opens a press release from Brazilian Palm developer Handcase. As far as I am able to determine, they have created a YouTube channel where users can submit videos about Handcase’s games and receive “2 products Handcase (1 software and 1 game), chosen by the winner of the video of the month.” They’ve also been doing company news like game release and such through the channel, so give it a look and maybe submit a video. It shouldn’t be too hard to top the competition.
