'You've Just Been Spotted" OC Blog Award Nominees

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! We've had such an incredible response to our first annual "You've Just Been Spotted" Orange County Blog Awards. We received so many comments, emails, & tweets - it was amazing! We loved seeing some of our favorite sites nominated, but we were thrilled to be introduced to so many amazing, new-to-us sites. So, without further ado.... here is the GIANT list of nominees. Now that we've compiled all the nominees, the REAL fun is about to begin. Take a moment to the peruse the list. & While we realize that in the end you'll be voting for YOUR favorite in each category, be sure to check out some of the other sites - you never know, you just might stumble onto something new & fabulous, that will become your new "daily read." Oh! & Don't forget to vote (over there on the left-hand side of our site), if you don't vote for your favorite, they might not win! & We definitely to know, no! we NEED to know who truly is the best of the best. (Be sure to vote before Thursday, August 13th at 11:59 pm, because after that, the "polls" will be closed.)
