Earlier today, we posted news of the MSN.com redesign.

Actually, we posted it a little too early.

Despite my almost obsessive-compulsive checking of the post publication time and making sure my WordPress settings showed the correct time, the post published one hour before it should have.

Unfortunately, I was already tucked-up in bed by 11pm, so didn’t know about it until this morning.

It was a complete accident and I’m still scratching my head as to how the heck it happened. That really doesn’t matter much though, because the blame stops with me–regardless of the mitigating circumstances.

So, Microsoft, the MSN Team, Scott Trepanier (and team) my sincere apologies. Safe to say, I’m sending myself to embargo rehabilitation therapy and won’t be getting any desert the next time I go to the cheesecake factory!

If you’re not familiar with DailyBooth.com, the best way to describe it is it’s like Twitter, but with snapshots of your face. Yeah I know, sounds lame, right?

Except that I can help but laugh out loud every time Dream Systems Media owner Matt Siltala posts his latest mugshot to DailyBooth–which he then feeds to his Twitter stream. In fact, so strange/funny/bizarre/scary are Matt’s expressions, that I asked him to provide one for a caption contest.

Here it is:

So, if you’re up for winning a $25 iTunes gift card, simply provide a caption for the above photo. You can leave a comment below–or at Matt’s DailyBooth page. Either way, you have until 9pm ET today to provide a funny–and clean–caption. Matt will then pick his favorite as the winner.

You should already know that Trackur is the easiest social media monitoring tool around, so how about a Twitter contest that is equally easy to enter?
