Hello

Filed: Billie

Hello. I’m Billie, Logitech’s billionth mouse.

You see that poster? That’s me. I’m lost, but there’s a search underway to find me. My owner, Jerry, is looking for me and I’m hoping you can help us reunite.

I made history the day I came off the manufacturing line in Suzhou, P.R. of China. There were celebrations held in my honor – and then I took a trip around the world and ended up here.

I want to tell you my story, but I’m a bit sleepy right now. Come back tomorrow and I’ll tell you more about my life and travels.

Oh, and each day for the next two weeks, I’ll post a question on my blog. If you know the answer, you can submit it as a comment before noon Eastern time the following day. If you answer correctly, your name will be included in the daily draw for a Logitech product prize. Good luck and hope to see you tomorrow!

-Billie
