This isn't the kind of story we'd usually post on Giz, but it's a Friday afternoon, it's been raining consistently for the past two hours outside my window and some of you might be talented enough to walk away winners.

Canon's second annual Photo5 competition opens for registrations today. If you're not aware, Photo5 is a competition where you register, then Canon sends you a box with five different items inside. You take photos of each of those items, enter one photo for each item and the best photos walk away with part of a $50,000 prize pool of EOS products. Who knows, by the time the winner is selected that might include a 5D Mk II...

It's open to both professional and amateur photographers as well, so there's nothing stopping you from registering and entering. Hit the link to get the process started.

David, Steve and Jr. you guys are the lucky winners of our Tropic Thunder Competition. Congratulations! Everyone else - stay tuned for our next competition, which is shaping up to be 370 degrees of awesome. I can't say too much... Read More »

If you haven't already entered our Tropic Thunder competition, you should click the link and enter now. Because on Monday, I'll be picking a winner. And even though a Director's chair and a double pass may not seem very Giz-like, it's still a free trip to go and see one of the funniest movies of the year. What other gadget site will offer you that? None of them, that's who. Because they don't care about you like Giz care's about you.

So go and enter now. Here.

I told you Stiller was a Giz fan! Now he's Paramount are giving three lucky Giz readers a chance to go and see the film with a "brutha" as well as a limited edition Tropic Thunder director's chair that you can paint your own name on (or the name of the site that you won it from).

To enter, we're going to make it quite simple: simply tell us in 25 words or less why you want to see the film in comments - I'll judge the best three winners next Monday! The funnier the better people!

Wow, it's been a bit of an iPhone-filled morning so far today, what with Virgin and Three unleashing iPhone plans and Telstra upgrading their own data packs. The end result though is that there are now a heap of options for the winner of our iPhone competition, which was run in conjunction with iWorld Australia.

The winner will be receiving his very own unlocked 16GB black iPhone 3G, plus a DLO Powerpack - the accessory he chose on the way to winning. And now, without any more procrastination, the winner is...

The iPhone is awesome. It's not perfect - no gadget ever will be - but it's a fantastic combination of devices in a single sleek handset. Even if you prefer other handset manufacturers, or can't bear to break up with your BlackBerry, there has to be a part of you, deep down, that wonders what it would be like to own one of these babies.

And that's where we come in. In case you've forgotten, we've partnered with iWorld Australia to give away an iPhone 3G to one lucky Gizmodian. All you have to do is head over here, fill in the questionnaire and hope and pray that you're picked to win.

The comp ends tomorrow, so if you've been putting it off, you should get your act together and enter now! It could be your lucky day!

There's only three full working days left that you can win a Nokia N78 from Giz AU. We gave one away last week, and this week we're doing it again. It's not hard to win - all you need to do is answer one little question in 25 words or less - pretty simple, huh?

Just go here to the original post and answer the question in the comments section. Then, on Friday afternoon, I'll pick the best answer. The person who wrote it will have a new Nokia N78. And it could be you. So go on - enter now!
