I tried to vote, but they want me to vote for all these other off-beat topics where I've never seen any of the sites before. I will not vote for other random sites just so I can vote for the consumerist. Too bad, I really want this site to win, but not at the expense of inflating the votes for other sites.
@savvy999: Funny, I did the same thing. The Consumerist has taught me well.
Anyway, congratulations on the nominations!
@EtherealStrife: my birthday finally lands on something else!
on a side note, consumerist and lifehacker have been nominated for similar awards way too many times! makes me feel bad to vote for one instead of another (and vise-versa)
Gods, you pulled out the tactical nuclear device and it's not even DEFCON 1 yet. Kitties? Pretty kitties? Pretty fluffy kitties??!!
I'm a cheap tramp: I'm SO there.
Uh, guys? Gals? ...Kittens? Let's crush Perez Hilton? Recruit friends-and-family? Multi-vote? Free iPods? Can we all agree that Perez. Must. DIE?
@Yankees368: Cough. Well the idea of the Webbies, bless their hearts, is that people will find unusual and deserving sites that they didn't realize were so swimmingly awesome. Sites that often don't have mega-buck ad budgets but DO have originality, charm and a unique voice.
It's okay: you have some time. Should scope 'em out. Bet you'll end up bookmarking at least one. At least. :)
I took a 6 hour walk in the desert to find the truth and face the real me. I was being torn by two forces that ripped deep into my soul. There were kittehs and trolls tussling and laughing all around me until I realized that my true fate was finally upon me. I was stripped of all ego and only left with raw instinct and my ability to click. My final vote was for icanhasacheezburger for best topical site. 'kiddin!
















If we win, on the day that it's announced, all the post during that day will be illustrated with cat-based photos.
damn... I was all ready to vote until you said that. :(
