The times are changing here at Gidol. No longer are we entirely focussed on amateur performances based around lip-syncing to popular songs - which is still a whole lot of fun, mind you! - but we've recently opened our doors to a much wider range of 'disciplines' and genres.

You may have noticed the new 'user-generated' competitions that are currently running.

Firstly, we have a great new track from Aneela feat. Arash who are asking you to show off your dancing skills. Bollywood dancing that is!


Secondly, our very own Microbefox has begun a competition where you'll need to show us your acting and short-film production skills.


And lastly, the hugely-popular best-selling Jazz prodigy from London, Jamie Cullum is asking for you to show us your story-telling skills.


From now on, we will be regularly featuring new and exciting competitions and promotions here at Gidol. After all, it's you, the audience, who is now in the driver's seat. And not only do you have the chance to express yourself and show the world your creativity and individuality, you can also pick up some great prizes along the way! What a wonderful world it is here at Gidol :)

If you've got an idea for a competition that you'd like to run, contact us at mygidol@googleidol.com and tell us what you're thinking.
