hey good stuff seriously

I think it’s a great idea to recognize other sites that present quality writing and information to people without wanting anything in return. Quality blogs/sites need to be recognized more for their accomplishments

Wow, I am so honored that you would choose me for special recognition! Thanks so much! Soon as I find a spare minute, I’m going to pop a badge on the Zone.

I truly appreciate the sentiments, and wish you great good cheer!

I am pleasantly surprised and honored. Thank you

We thank you girls, for giving us such interesting and entertaining articles to read. We are happy you like the badges (we almost killed the designer with our concerns – just kidding, he’s well and alive).

It seems those writing projects are worth the trouble: I always met great people on those occasions.

OMG thank you so much for your kind words Bes… I appreciate it very much.. I remember coming to this site when I got to know Simonne via Problogger’s writing project back in summer and honestly thought how fortunate and privileged are those who get a mention here and I do feel fortunate today!

and those badges are very cute and I sure would love to put one on my blog

Aww.. Thank you for the award, and the wonderful introduction! I appreciate it

I’ll definitely put up a pink badge on my pink blog
