Enter your vote in write in space in the community section.

So far only one write-in site has made the list. Your vote counts.”

“How? Thhrough the 'People's Choice' link?”

“Yea, the peoples choice. Make a link violin.

Oops on second thought.”

“Violin and bacpac find common ground”

“Damn site requires an email address to vote. Guess I could make one up.”

“What's Violin's email?”

“I have half a dozen email addresses.

I use one of them just for stuff like this. When I start getting spam I open a new email account.

My primary email account stays clear of most spam.”

“They send the pass word to your email account so you can't vote over and over (at least not from the same email address). I guess for site name we put Trail Talk and site url should be http://www.thebackpacker.com/trailtalk/”

“Is anyone else going to do this? I think it would be a real cool thing to do for matt.


Either that or #&%!$ about pop-up ads and anything else he does to try and make this place pay for itself.”

“I also keep a couple of email accounts for junk like this. I put in a vote for TheBackpacker.com.”

“I voted for thebackpacker.com under the category of community. It said there were other votes for the site as Violin posted it, with trailtalk on the end.”

“Crap. What if we're all voting for it under 3 or 4 different titles and splitting the vote? I used The Backpacker.com with http://www.thebackpacker.com for the URL and it said there were other votes for that as well.”

“I know. I was gonna ask what category.... :(

I used the same title and url as you skully, but didn't know what category, so I picked community. I saw geocaching under community, so thought I was close.
It looks like we can cast a vote in each category, but should decide on which one we belong in.

Yeah, and there was no category called nuthouse!”

“Results due on Thursday.”

“i knew those webby awards sounded familiar!”
