Great news for Blogspot bloggers! Yes, I’m looking at you, Lou, and Hyphen Mama, Zoe, Nan, and a whole bunch more, forgive my laziness in not linking to the rest, they are legion. I just know these URLs off by heart, I’ve linked to them that often.

My favourite go-to geek guy, Andy Bailey, has created the code for CommentLuv to work with Blogspot blogs. He has a video tutorial on the download page, and if you follow instructions, you can be up and running with CommentLuv on your blogspot blog in about 13 minutes. If you have a Typepad or Drupal blog, he has goodies for you, too.

What this will mean to you is that you will be able to host a contest with great prizes. You will need to sign up for the contest, but commenters win by leaving a comment on your blog.Your commenters will be selected at random to be winners.

I’ve been wicked excited about this, and just waiting for the tutorial to be ready so I could share the good news.

So, scoot! Check it out. Thanks, Andy, for a spectacular plugin.

Big news! Andy at FiddyP is cooking up a great contest with many exciting prizes. All you need to do is to get the latest version of CommentLuv for your blog, and register at commentluv.com. That’s it!

And when you comment at other sites that have this bee-yoo-ti-ful plugin enabled, sometimes a notice will come up instead of your last post, saying that you have won a prize. The contest hasn’t officially started yet, but get yourself over and register your site, so that every comment you make on a blog with the plugin will count as an entry when the contest is up and running.

Can you tell I’m excited? Get coding, Andy!

All it will take to enter this contest is a one time vote. It doesn’t involve registration or signing up, just going to the site and voting.

After you vote, come back and in the comments, state that your vote for Contestant #3 (that would be me) has been entered. I will choose a random comment/vote via random.org. The prize? $10.00 via PayPal. Not a huge prize, but I am spending money to make money. $100 is what I get if I win. If not, I am only out $10.

The place to go is Blogger Noob Review

I have a few more announcements later today, but once Sunday is over, so is the contest, so please head over right some quick, as they say hereabouts.

I will announce the winner as soon as the other contest winner is announced, which should be promptly done. There is a countdown bar on the site.

Well, I’m all worn out from all that pimping hehe.

Peep of the Week and an announcement later.

AND THE WINNER IS:

Kim, I will donate the money to your cause as per your request.

And? I won the contest you voted on! Here’s what I won. I thought since I was outside the US, I would get $100, which I was extremely happy about, but Noob says he will ship it to me, since Canada isn’t so very far away.

There were a lot of wonderful responses to my post about the lump, the impending funeral arrangements, and they were great!

A few of my commenters, namely Old Knudsen:

So it may be a cyst that will pop like the other one. If only you knew a psychic healer or something. If I was a doctor and was told that a pair of tities needed to be handled I’d make the extra time too. I’m too upset and distracted to vote for you I hope you understand. Only kidding of course I voted I know whats important to you.

and Jenny:

Do your forces of healing allow you to heal yourself? I only wish I could find such a fabulous doctor!!

suggested something about, oh, I don’t know…psychic healers? And then I slapped myself on the forehead. With a hammer. It felt so good when I stopped.

I sent love to my afflicted body parts (of which there are more of than mere boobage) and immediately felt an improvement.

Sometimes, you just have to be reminded of things that you already know. So thank you all, and especially you two memory joggers.

I’m still in that domain name tournament, and you know how I love to win things. This time it’s a new round, and I would appreciate you voting by clicking on the above link, and well, voting. Also? Don’t vote for bloggernoob because then nobody will win the prize, and most people are voting for him just to suck up. Sorry noob, but here’s a link by way of apology.

And, in other news, I just won that twenny bux over at Make Money Blog

I cheated a little, because I stumbled him. But he liked it, I could tell.

I’m not averse to a little stumbling my ownself.

I even put the handy dandy icon at the foot of each post, thanks to a great WordPress plugin called slashdiggliscious. You WP freaks may want to check it out.
