Competition updates

I can hardly believe this, but I won the Nature Network poll for best blog post in 2008!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Thank you to everyone who went over and voted for me!

Since I’m so awesome, I’ve come up with the following “trophy” for the First Annual VWXYNot? Readers’ Choice Comment of the Year Award! I just know that whoever wins is going to be delighted to display a photo of me on their blog.

Microbiologist XX and Ruchi have both upped the ante with posts encouraging their regular readers to vote, while current poll leader Massimo is taking the high road… at least for now. Nine days left, so if you haven’t already voted, you know what to do!

    Well done you! Congrats from over here.Also – I had not considered a blog post promoting myself in this wonderful contest… although I did drop some hints here and there (including MXX's blog comments as I recall… cheeky, cheeky).Ah well, being nominated was an honour, as Bill Murray would doubtless say.
