Why Not? The 2007 Performancing Blog Awards Nominations (Need Write-Ins)

Mister D:

Okay, this is so shameless, but I’m going to ask you germs and disinfectants (which is which??? girls and boys????) to play along if you like or have time. Performancing.com is holding their annual 2007 Performancing Blog Awards and are calling for “write-in” nominations. I don’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of winning this, but promotion is promotion…and it’s a chance to get more people aware of Bette’s presence on-line. Since my site is part blog/part fansite…I think we fit the bill to participate. It’s a win/win for all of us to get Bette’s name, show, enviromental work, and such to new viewers. Plus it feeds my rapidly shrinking ego…which shrinks, you know, other parts….:-( LOL

Here are the categories – I italicized the ones where I could remotely fit in. I don’t care which you choose to use as long as we get Bette’s name out there. So if you do participate, make sure when you put my link name that you write Bette Midler beside it:

Performancing is all about encouraging bloggers to make good blogs. And this year, we’re going to recognize the best blogs in the business with the first annual Performancing Blog Awards.

Starting today, we’re opening up nominations for the best best blogs or bloggers in each category. You are free to nominate your own blog, but we’d also encourage you to nominate others…blogs and bloggers that you truly believe in.

In addition, why not help spread the word about the Performancing Blog Awards by making a post on your own blog. You are free to hotlink the image and also include the following categories that are up for nomination.

Each category will have a single winner, two runners up, and possibly some honorable mentions. Our goal is to highlight the very best that the blogosphere has to offer, and we appreciate any tips/help that the Performancing community can provide to help us make our decisions:

But, it does work in promoting Bette…whether we win or lose… But, this means I will have to write my “About” crap…and I am such a procrastinator…
