Thoughtful Blogger Awards

Thoughtful BloggerThe very exceptional Christy, one of my best blogging buddies has awarded me with her Thoughtful Blogger Award which means a lot to me, since it promotes something which I think is the most important. In Christy’s words this award is for “those who answer blog comments, emails, and make their visitors feel at home on their blogs. For the people who take others feelings into consideration before speaking out and who are kind and courteous. Also for all of those bloggers who spend so much of their time helping others bloggers design, improve, and fix their sites. This award is for those generous bloggers who think of others.” Thanks Christy for recognizing me :) Now I’m supposed to pass this on to five others whom I also believe possess these same qualities.

  • Tish of The Kat House – Since I met Tish not too long ago I’ve found her to always be very kind, big-hearted and respectful of others. Her and I will be sitting online together for 24 hours at the end of this month for the Blogathon, to raise money for charity. I’d say it takes a special person willing to give of themselves in that way for others.
  • Mark of MeAndMyDrum – Mark is the kind of guy that you can just tell is always willing to lend a helping hand. He’s also one of the co-founders of the iReply movement, so you know he’s all about tending to his readers and replying to their comments.
  • The Baron of Brown Thoughts – The third founder of iReply movement (along with Mark and myself). He claims to be shy but that doesn’t stop him from helping his fellow bloggers. I’ve witnessed him do it on my own forum. Great guy indeed.
  • Danielle of Pink Internet Marketing – This girl just loves to spread the link love around to others. Not only that she’s extremely nice, very courteous and greets everyone with a virtual smile.
  • Polli of Polliwog’s Pond – Polli is one awesome human being. I don’t know if I’ve come across anyone with more heart in the blogosphere. She’s easily one of the kindest and most thoughtful people you’re going to find online.

So there you have it. Now I shall leave it up to these five exceptional people to point out five more deserving folks. Make sure you link back to Christy’s place so others can read about the meaning of the award and the rules Christy has put in place for it.

    Wow. Thank you so much for this Mike. I think out of the 4 awards that Christy created, this one is the one I would have wanted to be worthy of. I’m honored to be included in the company of the others you have named.

    You’re welcome, Polli :) It was really a no brainer to award one to you ;D

    Thanks! Instead of sending you milk, I’ll send you a whole cow instead heh.
    This means that even if Christy takes back the award she gave me, I’ll still have one yay haha

    I just remembered – don’t we still have some awards to distribute on BlogsWeLuv? I vote that we spend a few hours tomorrow night discussing candidates for the award. It’s not like you have a football game to watch or anything…

    hehehe…

    Just kidding.
