Hello there!

Looking for a free conference ticket to JSConf 2011 in beautiful Portland, OR USA? Well, Shopify is looking for awesome Shopify App Developers! So let’s make something happen. [shopify.com/partners]

To win

Using the Shopify API, solve the following puzzle, follow @shopifyapi, and send the answer to apps@shopify.com

My Aunt Ruth’s birthday is coming up, and I’d like to get her her favourite candy.

Fortunately, I’ve got access to her favourite shop online (don’t ask), and I bet I can use the Shopify API to figure out what she usually orders.

  • The API password will be announced Friday (April 15) evening over @shopifyapi EDT, April 15th 2011.

  • Winner will be announced Monday morning, April 18 via DM over Twitter.

  • Winner is determined by randomly selecting among the pool of correct answers.

What you need to know

You need to book a flight & hotel. This contest just gets you a conference ticket. That being said, Shopify will likely shower you with love and drinks once you get to Portland.
