Sony Online Entertainment has jumped on the social networking bandwagon with a vengeance, setting up Facebook and Twitter pages for Free Realms, EverQuest, and EverQuest II.

Of course, they want their player base to get involved and check these sites regularly, but they also want you playing their games. How to accomplish both goals? Simple -- offer prizes for doing both, and offer them up to everyone via a fun new program called "ConnectDING!"

SOE has set some goals for followers and fans of the sites for all three games: 5,000, 10,000, and 15,000. Each time they hit one of those milestones in a game they'll "DING!" and everyone in the game in question will be able to claim a little gift. At 5,000 it will be 250 Station Cash, at 10,000 it will be 250 Station Cash plus an interactive item, and at 15,000 everyone will receive 500 Station Cash and another interactive item.

Check out the official information page for all the details, and then head over to Facebook and Twitter to make your prizes arrive even faster.
