We'll be having another contest soon, so stay tuned for your Monthly Spank and messages from the Spankdroid.

Who Will be the Next Spankmaster?

The contest is drawing to a close within the next 24 hours. Winners will be announced within the week, probably on Monday or so. The delay is partly for the purpose of suspense and partly so that quality ratings can adjust after the contest is concluded.

Then, one of the Top Six -- the "Top One" you might say -- can start planning his or her Hawaii trip.

Spanking can get you Everywhere.

This Top One will also receive the honorary title of Spankmaster, which has been bestowed on fewer than ten spankers to date. You become a Spankmaster by winning a contest.

Contest Standings and Tips for One Week Remaining!

The Current Top 6 to Go to Hawaii or Vegas

There is roughly a week left in the contest! Here are some tips.

1. Add emails and facebook contacts to your Address Book and spank them. You get points when they read your spanks and when they sign up.

2. Remember your Quality Rating - so far, the winner of the contest has usually also had the highest Quality Rating during the contest. Take note that the contest scores settle after the contest is done.

3. You can get Personalized Contest Advice so check it out!

4. Can YOU win? Honestly? If you import, invite, and diligently invite a bunch of contacts, you could. But the longer you wait to start, the better you'll have to be :-).

New Features: Publish your Linkspank Wall, Read your Inbox in iGoogle, and RSS feeds for walls

Today we're trying some new publishing features to help you share Linkspank with us, and to stay connected yourself to the Spank at all times.

Publish your Linkspank Wall on MySpace or your Blog

You can get this widget and publish it on MySpace, your blog,
or anywhere you can paste a code

Read your Linkspank Inbox in iGoogle

Add your Linkspank Inbox to your iGoogle or feed reader

Follow an individual's wall, or all your friends' walls, via RSS feeds

Finally, you can follow your favorite friends' spanking, or the spanking of people you're not friends with, via RSS, if you do that sort of thing. Check our publishing tools page for more information.

These features are new, so let us know what you think. Hopefully your face will be melting off with excitement.

No Friends? You can still go to Hawaii

Linkspank is not about collecting friends -- it's about communicating with them.

That's why you can spank email addresses or Facebook friends, and they can read your spanks just by clicking. (Email addresses can read in one click; facebook friends have to add the Linkspank app once.) And you get points for these spanks.

What does it mean? It means you can spank your friends, even if they aren't spankers yet. And you'll get points, and if you're good you may have a shot at Hawaii. And if your spankees happen to join the spank, you'll get more points still.

Get your Content Featured on Linkspank TV

We've got a 100% new episode of Linkspank TV coming up. The last episode was awesome, but this episode is going to rip the arms off of the last episode and use them as chopsticks to eat it.

Watch the last episode.

If you are a blogger, Internet TV star, comedian, stuntman, pro wrestler, clown or the next Tucker Max, you may want to consider spanking your materials on Linkspank, and getting your friends to spank those materials onward. Because the best of the best recent spanks will be featured on Linkspank TV. And of course, your spanking effort could well set you on the way to a free trip to Hawaii. Thank you.

Be Friends with Elaine

Elaine truly wants you to be her friend.

Then you can spank each other. If only all friendships were this simple.

Don't know what a Spank is?

If you don't know what a spank is, or how to spank, check out our new orientation page:

www.linkspank.com/orientation

Which you can also find as "Orientation" under the "More" menu on the site.

We are constantly working on making the beautiful and delicate art of spanking as clear to newcomers as we can, with a minimum of effort required (since we are not here to work after all). Hopefully this is a step up. And if you have confused spank friends, pass it on... thank you.

Contest is Wide Open

Here are the current Top 6 for Hawaii:

The contest is still just getting started and it's anyone's game. If you like surfing on the web, and wouldn't mind surfing in Hawaii, you should strongly consider getting your spank on. Check http://www.linkspank.com/contest

Part of the beauty in this contest is that you can win either competitively or by reaching certain point levels.

If you still don't know what a spank is, or you generally feel lost, check our Orientation Page. We are working on a new version of that page, which you may find more educational for spanking.
