As promised, the Featured Blog selection process is taking yet another step toward true democracy. Starting now, member nominations will be accepted for future consideration in the Featured Blog selection cycle.
To nominate a blog simply leave suggestions in the comment thread attached to this post. Or, if you're shy about your suggestion, simply send me a private message, and your valid suggestion will be collated into the pool of nominations.
- Please restrict your comments on this thread to nominations.
- You can nominate more than one blog, but multiple nominations for the same blog by any one member will only count as one nomination.
- Don't be afraid to echo someone else's nomination, but please refrain from criticizing other valid nominations.
- Previously Featured Blogs will not be eligible for future consideration.
Remember, you have to be a member of Philly Future to nominate and vote on Featured Blogs. If you're not already a member, joining is easy and free. Click here to find out how to join.
UPDATE: This first round of nominations has closed as of 12:30 p.m. on Friday, February 3, 2006 -- All blogs nominated in this thread that don't appear in the February 3 Featured Blog poll will be eligible for re-nomination in the next round.

Thank you, Promohthree
Thank you for nominating my blog Promohthree! I wasn't aware that anyone was reading.
If I was selected it would inspire me to write daily posts that would interest a wider audience rather than my normal self absorbed journal entries.

Your "self-absorbed"...
Journal entires are what make you fun to read :)
I must be quiet now and go back to my non-biased self. But I'm happy to see you nominated with the rest so far!
Self nominating?
Ehh - it's okay :)
And you do have a great blog.
Both
great choices!
yup
thanks for the nod, and the compliment.
once on the late show, a kid asked dave "why do you always laugh at your own jokes?" to which dave replied "if i didn't, who would."
