Asia Blog Awards: Results.

The Results are In!

In the "Best Hong Kong Blog" Category. I came second

🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Thank you!!!!!!!

Of the 1480 votes cast Glutter recieved: 300. The winner 307. The two of us shared 40% of the overall percentage.

The winner EastSouthNorthWest is awesome. His is my favorite Hong Kong blog and incredibly worthy. If I wasn’t competing, I would have surely supported him.

Moreover (and dammit!!) he also won NTSCMP’s

BIGGEST DISGRACE TO HONG KONG BLOGGING:

No blog lets the Hong Kong blogging community down like EASTSOUTHWESTNORTH, who among other things translates Hong Kong Chinese newspaper articles into English and provides critical and illuminating commentary.  What’s more, he actually knows what he’s writing about. Several of the NTSCMP judges have become regular readers, What is happening in the world when someone produces a worthwhile blog?

Some people win everything… sigh. (pout)

(PS. I am kidding. As last year I begged NTSCMP to vote me the worse HK blog, but they didn’t oblige and only ever wrote nice things about and to me.)

Like all things, I have people to thank: Mark, Tom, Thurman, Someone, and the fabulous Miss. Foo as the unofficial campaign managers of Glutter, and of course all the people who took the time to click the radio box for me, some multiple times!! The number of votes suprized me and it made me smile.

  1. Sort of shocking, actually.
    Time is a strange concept, isn’t it? Seems like the older I become the faster time passes. I turned 30 last friday.
    Glad I found your weblog. You’re life’s very interesting. 🙂
