WinVistaClub, in association with
Windows Vista - The Official Magazine, is organising a contest to recognise some of the best Windows Vista Blogs and Websites.
We invite you to participate in this first-of-a-kind Contest to Judge the Best Windows Vista Blog or Website.
So if you run a blog or a website, which primarily focuses on Windows Vista, we invite you to submit your Blog Title, Blog HomePage url along with upto a 4 line description about it. The blog may cover Microsoft & Windows in general, but must also cover Vista in particular. It could focus on Tips, Tutorials, Support Forums, Customization & Themes, News, Views, Media Center, or anything which may interest a Vista user.
From among the submissions, the 10 best blogs will be picked up by a panel of Judges. The blogs will be judged on the basis of quality of content, integrity, along with the frequency of updates. And this is going to one difficult task.
The Panel of Judges include
Steve Sinchak MVP of TweakVista.com,
John Barnett MVP of Windows Vista Support,
Kerry Brown MVP of VistaHelp.ca,
Steven Bink of Bink.nu,
James Stables of Windows Vista Magazine,
Emil Protalinski of Arstechnica,
Aryeh Goretsky MVP of Lockergnome.Com,
Barney Tormey Global Moderator at Neowin and
myself.
The top 10 blogs so selected by this Panel will be put up for a Public Vote.
No Forum registration will be required for voting. Anyone can vote. The winner and 2 runner ups, will be selected from amongst the top 5 blogs getting the maximum number of votes.
