I had to laugh when read "dead simple" . Someone complained about it on HN a few weeks ago and it is true. Tech Crunch abuss too much of this term..

hehe, I only clicked on the comments for this thread because I wanted to see if someone would comment on "dead simple" again.

First time I can recall seeing "Dead Simple" is on Posterous. I think we're just used to everything being overly complicated so that anything that's simple is by definition "dead simple". Simple by itself is naked and unsophisticated. Dead simple on the other hand is special.

@140bets, if you are reading this, you need to state rules and regulations CLEARLY to host contests like these in the US. just wanted to highlight that so the founders don't get caught in a bad situation.
