Vote here!

I was informed by Greg of www.BlogCup.com that AdesBlog is nominated for the 2nd International Blog Cup Competition. I am up against TheSearchBench, and as far as I can see, it’s beating me 7:3.

Come on guys, let’s show the power of AdesBlog! vote here.

Now that the blog is PR5, I am not sure if this contest is still relevant. Please cast your vote on this issue to decide whether it should continue or stop. Because it’s your sites that will be showing on AdesBlog for a week, so I thought the best judge would be the readers themselves.

I will check the results in 2 days and decide based on them. Until the results are out, there will be no new updates. So the current five sites will stay few more days longer.

This is the second annual BusinessWeek contest to identify and recognize Europe’s most promising entrepreneurs that are 25 years old or younger. The article says that “young people—25 years old and under—are more eager than ever to try their hand at launching companies.” it also says:

Economic growth in Europe is faster than in the U.S. Reform-minded governments are chopping away the red tape that stifles small business. The Internet is knocking down barriers faster than a thousand ponderous directives from Brussels. And mobile young people, nursed on wireless phones and the Web, are fanning out across the continent in search of new business opportunities.

Have you taken the ProBlogger Test that was set up by DailyBlogTips? I managed to get 60%, so that makes me only 60% pro blogger. Well, I guess I have lots of things to catch up in the blogosphere.

I have blogged about DBT here. It’s a great blog with lots of blogging tips. Recommended for every blogger to read.

By the way, this test is not an official test that determines the probloggers from normal bloggers, so if you get results that are lower than expected, don’t be sad. On the other hand, if you score the test, then you should be proud of yourself! In any case, good luck!
