I was thinking of making this into a video of sorts, but my stupid digicam is on a riot since my vacation in August. So people, I am announcing the winner of my contest – Smilu!!! Consider yourself lucky to win this prize since it will just help you get out of that blogspot domain and host it independently. I picked this blog from a random number of the entrants. Smilu, I have sent you a mail now, please respond by tommorow otherwise the prize gets rolled over ๐Ÿ™‚

Smilu is a beautiful photographer who has nature in his lens. Do visit his blog to view his pictures and stuff. But I really suggest you remove those ads, those pesky widgets and stuff till your reader base is bigger.

Also, A BIGG Thanks everyone for entering my small contest. But it was all I could afford. But maybe I can win any cash online, I promise to put it up on a contest. Now, moving on, what were the effects of this contest? Well, I managed to get barely 15 entries and this helped with technorati rankings, but did nothing in terms of PR which is not here yet, also in terms of traffic.

    Hey Anand, why dont you get the nested-comments plugin…

    A top commentators plugin wouldn’t hurt either… ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜†

  5. I had that plugin, but when I updated the wordpress to the latests, those plugins refuse to work. Also about top commentators, I am waiting for the Pagerank! ๐Ÿ™‚ Hope you know about my do follow* (conditions apply) plugin . Hint: Look at the right sidebar bottom ๐Ÿ˜€
