LizardTech Brings Back the Show Us and Show Off Challenge at 2008 ESRI International User Conference
SEATTLE, Wash. — July 29, 2008 — LizardTech, a division of Celartem Inc. and a leading provider of software solutions for managing and distributing digital content, announced a special contest, back by popular demand, in conjunction with next week’s ESRI International User Conference being held in San Diego, CA, August 4-7, 2008.
An exhibitor at the conference (Booth #401), LizardTech will be once again challenging attendees to Show Us their LizardTech lizard collections and Show Off their favorite aerial imagery. During the Show Us contest, the attendee who has the largest collection of unique LizardTech lizards will win. For the Show Off challenge, LizardTech customers have been uploading images to LizardTech’s Express Server portal site (http://portal.lizardtech.com) prior to the conference; attendees at the ESRI conference who visit LizardTech’s booth will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite image. Every participant in LizardTech’s “Show Us & Show Off” contest will receive an ESRI 2008 collector’s lizard, and the two contest winners will be awarded GPS Systems (each valued at $300). Contest details can be found at www.lizardtech.com/esri2008.
