On being nominated for The Indibloggies
So it turned out that I was nominated for the Indibloggies award under the “Best Science/Technology IndiBlog”. Right. I wouldn’t have expected to get nominated: the “tech” stuff that I post once in a while appeals, generally, to a few small groups; I don’t post—except maybe a few couple times—“tech news”; and, being on LiveJournal—a place where I’d typically post stuff that I’d like to share stuff with my “friends”—more often than not I probably do not post stuff that I would have otherwise. All of which are probably good things.
I haven’t come to a conclusion about what these sort of awards mean and all that. Nonetheless, thanks to all those who nominated—at least it means that people do read me. I did not win, but this quote from del.icio.us is interesting:
Possibly the most quoted Indiblog by the "a-class" bloggers. [...]
I should now get back to checking on the marination for my Rum Chocolate Fudge.
