Shared on Thu, 07/13/2006 - 12:58For those that are curious about the writing contest:
Im building a list of associates that I know will rank the articles justly, and will do it promptly with good results. They are people that Ive worked with on the magazine, some editors, and some people that value the opinions of others.
Once these folks (I will call them the circle of nine) are finished with their ranking I will tally the ranks into the top-5 best articles by weighted rank. Once I have those, we will move on to bringing in the general public to vote upon the best of the best, and take it from there. More on the second stage once I get the results from the first stage.
Why so long? I had to get some time to collect all the articles, validate that they all worked (from my mail download), get a few that failed to transfer correctly or had issues, and Ive now got them all. Im stripping the names out, and packing them up for the circle to read and get back to me with results.
Stay tuned.

PS: A little more then half of the sign-ups came in, so if you passed it in you are competing against 23 others, not 40+ as originally signed up.
