A Trend Micro contest called What's Your Story? will award $10,000 to the best short video about online safety and security.

"This is an opportunity for teens to share their own experiences and thoughts about Internet safety with their peers, which can be a lot more effective than lectures from adults," writes CNET News' Larry Magid. "Still, parents, teachers, and older students are also encouraged to enter, though contributions from teens are strongly encouraged."

"People who submit are encouraged to promote their own videos with links on their social-networking pages and blogs," Magid writes. "Judges will take into account the number of views -- not only as a way of promoting awareness but also giving filmmakers real-world experience in marketing and promotion."
