Wow, I have to say, that is the highest company I’ve ever been mentioned alongside of in the same sentence. Thanks, Lisa. And I agree with Matt — Outspoken will do very well next week (at least if people voted like I did :D ).

Hee, I saw that when the list was first announced. It’s very funny. I’d love an SEMMY Loser badge once none of our posts make it beyond the final. :p

Ha, I’m not giving anything away. There’s a secret squirrel panel that works with Matt during the year to tuck away the best material and then public judges are asked to narrow it down. It actually says under each category who the judges were so that’s not a secret. :)

But SEMMYS are definitely a great add to the community. Props to Matt and the SS for taking the time out to do it. I merely help out at the very end once the hard work has been done.

oooh Lisa – now we know who one of the judges are. even though it’s supposed to be a secret. how many cupcakes to get nominated for the next year’s awards? :-)

I think the Semmy’s are great – and there’s so many amazing articles that I have yet to read.

Congrats to you and all the nominees!
I didn’t get one, so I made my own badge… http://explicitly.me/semmy-awards-2010 (please don’t sue me)

Thx for the kind words, Lisa, and for spreading the word about the SEMMYS. (And your vote, too.) I have to think Outspoken will do well when the winners are announced next week.
