Blog Project Three: Winners

This was a very successful contest. We had a huge number of entries, and everyone was very active surfing and linking to the participant blogs.

Going through the “favorite entries” lists I could also notice how different our taste is. Pretty much all the entries received at least one vote, and even the three winners were only a couple of votes ahead of the rest.

Thanks for everyone who participated, and stay tuned for the next contest! Now, without further delay, the 3 winners of the $100 cash prize and the runners-up. (Full list of entries):

Congrats to all the winners and runners-up!

Through the project I ended up finding some great sites that I added to my RSS subscriptions. So, you could say that there might be more “winners” in that some sites probably gained some new readers.

Thanks for hosting the contest, Daniel!

Sheila, absolutely! I am pretty sure that everyone ended up with some new readers and new friends.

That is one of the purposes of such projects. Thanks for participating.

Congrats to the winners! The number of pingbacks I got was worth the effort alone!

Wow, I don’t know what to say. Thank you Daniel and thank you to everyone who linked to, voted for, and visited my post!

These writing projects are a lot of fun to participate in whether you win or not. And the linkbacks and exposure can really help a new blog gain an audience… I know I always find a lot great new blogs.

Congrats to everyone!

I found a lot of great blogs AND my technorati authority nearly tripled through this project (11–>31); two great prizes by themselves.

Good job everyone.

Thanks guys for a great experience - it was my first time writing for a competition like this and it really opened my eyes to all the creative blogs out there. i’m only sorry i didnt get to vote - I was away cycling for a week in the wilds of rural Ireland, far away from anything resembling an internet connection…
