melt the statues in the park

A few readers have told me that WWdN is nominated for Best Big Name Blog in the 2004 Best of the Blogs awards, so I headed over there to see who else was nominated, and to perhaps correct the assertion that I'm a Big Name anything.

Holy crap, am I in some good company. Namely, Tony Pierce and Dooce.

So look, here's the thing: If you're going to go there and vote, you'd better vote for Tony. Right now he only has 13 votes, and that's because I can only vote once a day. I'm serious. This isn't some sort of false humility -- it's a fact. Tony Pierce writes one of the best (and more often than not THE best) blogs on the Internets. Go read his site if you doubt me. Tony is fearless, funny, and talented. And pick up his book How To Blog while you're there.
