I got the following in my email tonight.
Congratulations! Just a brief note to let you know we named Rhymes with Right as our "Site of the Day" on Politics1.com.In the course of publishing Politics1, we regularly visit LOTS of campaign and politically-related websites. Some candidates, campaigns and groups truly get the concept of using the Internet as a tool to effectively convey messages, promote increased citizen involvement, enhance voter education, and effectively and innovatively use technology to advance their causes. We created this award to recognize deserving sites from all states, and at all levels of campaigns, ranging across the ideological spectrum. The criteria is certainly subjective ("I'll know it when I see it," to quote the late Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart), as we look for any one or a combination of the following: good content, sharp design, clever humor, creativity, innovation in organizing, use of new online tools, etc. The award is not about endorsing candidates or causes -- but rather about simply recognizing those campaigns and entities that effectively use the Internet as a political tool. This is why we selected your site for recognition.
In addition to being featured today on our homepage -- and we currently draw approximately 250,000 page views per week -- you'll also be permanently enshrined on our Site of the Day page at http://www.politics1.com/sotd.htm (and in our blog archives).
Warmest regards,
Ron Gunzburger
Publisher, Politics1.com
I'm speechless -- or at least as close as this short, fat, balding, middle-aged, white guy ever gets.
I really didn't expect this honor, and I appreciate the compliment. I guess this means I must be doing SOMETHING right.
