It Really Is An Honor

Thank you, readers: Your help has helped us get THREE Weblog Awards nominations! And considering the company we're thrilled to make the cut. We're nominated for Best Group Weblog, Best Non-Weblog Content of a Weblog Site (what is that, exactly?), and Best American Blog. We face off against Jason Kottke in the Best American Blog category, but we know who'll probably prevail: That kid who played Wesley Crusher.

Our vote for best web applications for weblogs will go to Movable Type, who also scored a nominated for TypePad. And we're also happy to see a lot of sites we enjoy nominated: Kottke and Gizmodo are both up for best computers/technology blog, while Satan's Laundromat was nominated for Best Photoblog. low culture was nominated for best-kept-secret weblog, as was LasagnaFarm. And we're going to have to vote for Anil in the lifetime achievement award, or else he'll hunt us down. And 'cause he's getting old.

So, thank you again for nominating us, and please continue to show your support by voting here. We'd really like the cumulative $60.12 in prize money: That's a lot of BBQ.

Go smell your own farts for the great reposting of NY post stories. You are so talented!

I'm totally voting for you guys. Three times, even. It's as if I lived in Chicago.

I expected Gothamist to get a bunch of nominations, but me? It's like when you look the wrong way when you're about to cross the street, you start crossing, and suddenly a bus honks from the other direction.

Wil Wheaton writes like a little girl.

Which is in line with his acting, as well.

You're gonna waste all that dough on Daisy May's? You'lll know what torture is like trying to eat all that bbq with no place to sit. Ugh. How about a mess of cheese-steak sandwiches at BBs?

Crusher, Striker, bah, Wil Wheaton writes like a little girl. But thanks hy. And rachelle - are you going to the ceremony? We'd love for you to be our rep in the unlikely but fabulous event we win.

rachelleb

Wesley Striker? You mean Wesley Crusher, right? Or Gordy from "Stand by Me"...

Now I sound like a Wil Wheaton fan boy. :P

I still voted Gothamist.
