Industry Awards and the Rubber Chicken

This post is from from my other blog here

Well it seems that it is Awards Season in the blog-o-sphere and we actually got nominated for something! As is only fitting, the only thing we were nominated for is a Rubber Chicken award (http://blumenthals.com/blog/2007/12/27/rubber-chicken-award-aka-the-columbo-top-10-finalists-vote-now/), it just figures don’t it? It seems that Jeff and I tickled a few funny bones with our 2 Part Series dubbed ‘the Sphinn Awards (Part I and II)'. Considering I do enjoy playing the class clown, I am more than pleased to have made it as a finalist.For those that missed it, here are the posts; The Sphinn Awards Part I (http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/the-first-unofficial-sphinn-awards-day-1.html)The Sphinn Awards Part II (/internet-marketing/social-media-marketing/the-sphinn-awards-part-2.html)For those of you that enjoy a good guffaw, here are the other Top 10 Finalists;Shana Albert’s Boobs (http://wingnutseo.com/?p=72) – Wignut Add words to Adwords; Google removes them (http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-not-to-write-adwords) - SEOmoz Why eBay and Wikipedia dominate the Google SERPs (http://sebastians-pamphlets.com/why-ebay-and-wikipedia-rule-googles-serps/) – SabastianSEO’s Home Alone; Google’s Nightmare (http://sebastians-pamphlets.com/seos-home-alone-googles-nightmare/) - Sebastian 13 things to do when you loved one is at a conference (http://www.seomoz.org/blog/13-things-to-do-when-your-loved-one-is-away-at-conferences) – SEOmoz SEO High School Confidential (http://www.searchmarketinggurus.com/search_marketing_gurus/2007/10/seo-soap-opera-.html) – Search Markeitng Gurus21 Signs You need a break from SEO (http://www.smallbusinesssem.com/top-21-signs-you-need-a-break-from-seo-2007-version/529/) – Tamar10 Signs you may be a Blog addict (http://www.searchrank.com/blog/2007/04/10-signs-of-a-blog-addict.html) – Search Rankthe SEOs guide to Beginners (http://www.seomoz.org/blog/the-seos-guide-to-beginners)- SEOmozthe Internet Marketer’s Nightmare (http://jmorris.name/marketing/the-internet-marketers-nightmare/) – James Morris OnlineMission Accomplished; Top Ranking in Google (http://www.alchemistmedia.com/blog/mission-accomplished-top-ranking-in-google) – Alchemist MediaGoogle interiors; the day my house became searchable (http://www.closed-loop-marketing.com/blog/2007/06/02/google-interiors-the-day-my-house-became-searchable/) – Closed Loop
