So guess what, wazers? You’re looking at the 2010 winner of the ‘Best App Ever Award’ for Navigation in the iPad category. Woo hoo! We love winning awards cause it provides us with a great opportunity for exposure, and a chance to welcome many more wazers into the fold. Hope this nice little win helps spread the word…

Hey there wazers wazing around San Francisco, CA…this one’s for you! Interpol (only one of the raddest bands around) is having an all ages show at famed SF venue, The Warfield, on Monday, January 31, and if you wanna go, we’ve got a set of tickets ready to go. All you gotta do is munch as many Interpol road goodies as you can today through Sunday morning at which point, the one who’s eaten the most wins! We’ll notify the winner on Sunday via email. Whoever you are, lucky wazer, we hope you’ll enjoy the show!

Update: Congrats to user Romano73! The tix are yours for eating a total of 11 goodies – we’ll email you with more details… Special effort prizes go to user Sans and user Bumblebee for very respectable munching of 7 goodies, each.

If you guys aren’t familiar with Interpol, here’s one of their early classics:

Well, hot damn – look at all of you gorgeous wazers out wazing by the bay today! And with so many of you singing, and so many ladies representin’ – this is what we like to see! There’s nothing we like more than seeing the driving communities grow in different areas, and seeing all kinds of drivers’ moods on the map. Have you guys made every effort to grow the driving communities in your areas? Don’t forget to tell your friends about waze – as you know, the more people using the app in your ‘hood, the better the navigation and traffic info becomes. Help make an impact and send your friend a link to our download page today!

Here’s an example of something we threw together quickly and put up on YouTube to provide a little inspiration for y’all. Putting together a video yourself about how much you like waze for the V-Day Video Loveletter contest is super easy. There’s still just under two weeks to make your own video for the chance to win a brand new MacBook Air. Click here to read the contest rules and submit your own video today!

Carlosrv19 from Costa Rica, guess what? A brand new iPad is all yours! This marks the last iPad given out, for now, but we wanna give a big thanks to all of you who participated by bringing new friends on over to waze. We hope you start seeing improved navigation and traffic information as the driving communities in your area develop and we want you to know that we really appreciate your efforts to help make that a reality.

We’re happy to annouce this week’s winner, user noahschrader, from the US. If you’ve been trying for the iPad but it still isn’t yours, don’t fret – there’s one last week to give it a go. Did you know that bringing just 5 new friends would have put you into the running this week? And last week it was only 4! Bring as many new friends as you can to waze from today, onwards, and if you’re the lucky one next week, a shiny new iPad will be yours! Further details can be found here.
