To garner awareness, educate users and further promote its unique features, GodTube.com will be kicking off the "30 Days of GodTube" campaign beginning May 2.
Special promotions, contests and announcements will occur throughout May. A 10-day video scavenger hunt will begin May 2 and entries for a flash mob video contest will start May 16.
