Even though ALotAboutNothing.com has only been live for a couple of months, I ain’t too proud to beg for a vote from my loyal readers (or ones that just ended up here by fluke). :D
The 2007 Black Weblog Awards are currently underway, and until August 15th, they’ll be accepting nominations for your favourite weblogs for, by and/or about Black people. And since I am “Black” (with a lovely ‘fro, mind you) and have a blog that speaks to not only Black people, but targets everyone (and almost every topic), I think I should garner your vote. ;)
All you have to do is visit the Black Weblog Awards site, enter your name and a valid email address, and type in my blog address (http://alotaboutnothing.com) in any of the categories that you think I’d fit the title.
What categories do you think I feel I should be nominated in? Well I thought you’d never ask! The first one that comes to mind is “Best International Blog” (since my blog isn’t based in the United States). I also think I’d have a chance in the “Best Blog Design” category (since it’s a pretty good original design, not relying on other WordPress templates) and “Best New Blog” (well… since my blog is new). “Best Personal Blog” would also be able to house my site since I post my various rants about my life and experiences.
You’re only limited one ballot, so if you feel sorry for me and feel like voting twice in the same category, don’t bother. However, you are allowed to nominate my blog in more than one category on a single ballot entry. And if you know of any other Black blogs out there that you frequent, vote for them on the same form as well (hopefully not in the same categories as mine! :P ) Don’t forget to spread some love and get your friends to visit my blog as well.
Thanks in advance to all you potential voters out there. And if you have any ideas on what you think would be a good blog post for ALotAboutNothing.com (another shopping guide perhaps?!), feel free to contact me.
