Dunkin' Donuts unveils YouTube contest

Dunkin' Donuts said today that it recently launched a Dunkin' Donuts brand channel on YouTube, the online community that allows people to discover, watch, and share originally created videos.

Through March 1, US consumers are invited to create videos to share on YouTube; the Canton-based coffee-and-baked goods chain is asking consumers to answer the question, "How Do You Keep America Running?"

A panel of judges will evaluate the submissions, and visitors to the site will rate the videos to determine 50 winners who will receive a year's supply of Dunkin' Donuts coffee, said the chain, which added that the top 10 videos may also be featured on www.DunkinDonuts.com and other web sites.
