Report Federal Pork, Win a Kindle (Wired)

The watchdog service is giving away an Amazon Kindle and an iPod Shuffle to the citizens who identify and upload the most earmarks to its interactive map of Congressional giveaways. Third place gets a fruitcake. (Sounds a little Glengarry Glen Ross, but whatever).
