Hey, are you an aspiring developer? Do you want to develop a Spore widget or application? We have an opportunity for you: The Spore API contest. Use the extensive content in Sporepedia to create your app from scratch or download the source code from one of the sample apps, and create the most useful/coolest/most awesome application on earth.

The grand prize is an NVIDIA graphics card. The second prize is a copy of Spore and Spore Galactic Adventures, and the third prize is a copy of Spore Galactic Adventures.

Wait, the grand prize is a graphics card? Seriously? Okay, that's cool and all, but maybe you should develop an app for the iPhone instead, where the grand prize for a top-selling application is a crap-ton of money.

Anyway, here's the contest link. Check out the official rules and knock yourself out!
