I am pretty darn excited that I’ve been chosen to help Rafflecopter test a new widget! Along with the testing, they are providing a $25 Amazon Gift Code to one winner!
If you have any feedback about this new code NOW is the time to leave a comment! Because as soon as this new widget goes live… you are going to be seeing it all over the blogosphere! It will be the new widget (instead of the older version seen on my other giveaways!) So speak now or forever hold your… you get the idea!
New Widget?
There are many benefits to this new Rafflecopter form, but the biggest improvement
will be that Rafflecopter will no longer rely on cookies as a means of tracking your
entries. They’re introducing a sign-in system… you can either sign in with your Facebook
account or your name and email address.
There are many other features/improvements of the new widget over the old one, which
will be TBA! But for now, enter below, leave us your feedback, and let us know if you
see anything that’s confusing or buggy.
So, again… any feedback you can provide me or Rafflecopter would be fantastic!
Disclaimer: Rafflecopter is providing the GC to one winner. Giveaway ends Friday at 12:01am EST
About Karissa
Not bad. Im loving that its connect with Facebook to make it easier to track.
A lot of times when companies make “improvements” you wonder – What were they thinking? – not so with the improvements made to Rafflecopter – not only easier, but much more iformative as to entry status – WTG Rafflecopter!
Rita, it does seem to make more sense! i am glad you like it!
i entered this a simply stacy last night so i’m assuming this is a combined giveaway with other sites because I can only do my tweet today. I’d like that it transfers info between sites when they use the same giveaway so I don’t accidentally enter twice. and i like not having to keep putting in the same information for each entry
Anna, You are right there are 8 of us hosting the same giveaway. I am wondering how this will change giveaways from here on out. It might make them all big… which I don’t like. But it might make them easier to find… which I do like. Might make bloggers team-up and kick the little bloggers to the curb. Hmm… I have mixed feelings about the multi-blog function but LOVE the new widget itself.
What do you think!?
This seems like it will nake easy rafflecopter entries even easier.
I don’t like the new form. I use different emails for FB and for contests so I don’t like connecting anything to FB. it was better before
I tried logging in through FB but it just sat there, so I logged in with my name/email address.
I don’t care for it because my personal FB account is linked to my personal email address making it impossible for me to log in that way instead I have to do it with email & name. I just prefer the old way but then again maybe I don’t like change lol
Thanks,
Kelly
I didn’t realize that this was the same giveaway, and I entered it again
I love love love it!!! Now I know for sure that my entry is being counted and not lost somewhere out there in the world wide web. I also like that it tells you exactly how much time is left for the giveaway. Very helpful for the person doing the giveaway.

I’m liking it a lot!
Thanks for all the feedback so far everyone! The guys at Rafflecopter have been reading them … so don’t think your opinions aren’t being heard!
This is a big change, and will effect us all… keep um coming!
We certainly are
Thanks for all the help Karissa. There are a lot of unseen benefits to this new widget in comparison to the old one that we haven’t done a great job at explaining, but we’ll make sure to do that before we allow more blogs to use this.
Thanks for allowing us to use your blog for this test Karissa!
I can’t fill in the extra info section like my tweet: https://twitter.com/#!/pauline15/status/142102413950722048
other than that, I kindof like the original version better.
Hmm… sorry to hear Pauline. Not sure what that’s about! Maybe next time the Rafflecopter guys chime in they can help… or email them directly before it becomes a bigger issue: greg@rafflecopter.com
I like it
