(Plus, we’ll have all our normal $100/$50 prizes, as well.) I’ve been using the Flip for a few months now and think it’s one of the smartest gadgets I own. Those vid-clues posted on our Facebook page? Took two seconds to record and upload, in amazing 16×9 HD. If you’re into full quality in a tiny package, this is the cam for you. Check out the little clip below that I recorded of my son Jack playing peek-a-boo in the car. And if you’re the lucky HDYK gamer who scores the Flip, we’ll invite you to record a clue for next month’s game, so you’ll also be building your résumé.

As mentioned over the weekend, we’ll have special guest vloggers, Sister Salad, contributing to this week’s hunt, as well as some amazing new puzzles by a young puzzle-freak named Josh Halbur.

So go fan us over on Facebook to better your chances, or at least remember to check that page every day during the hunt, even if you’re not a Facebook member, so you can see what hints are dropped for some of the harder challenges.
