I’ve just nominated GrandmasterB.com for Best Blog Design in the 2008 Blogger’s Choice Awards, and I need your votes. I know it may seem kinda lame to nominate myself, but I figured if I’m confident in my design than I should go ahead and push the nomination. So with this nomination in place I’m taking it to the streets. I am looking for all of my loyal readers to hit the campaign trail with me and vote for GrandmasterB.com for Best Blog Design.

I don’t know if there are any prizes involved with winning an award other than the recognition of the masses (which is fine with me); however, if there are some prizes involved I will donate them to a contest to be held at a later date. So if you think my site design is top notch…VOTE FOR ME! You can reach the Blogger’s Choice Awards site by clicking the link in my sidebar (NOTE: you will have to register to vote). Thanks to everyone in advance who votes for me…I appreciate it.

This weekend GrandmasterB.com will be moving! After reading the rave reviews of Top Hosting Center and seeing the great hosting packages they offer I’ve decided to part ways with my current host. I found Top Hosting Center while visiting JohnCow.com and signing up for the XBOX 360 that THC is sponsoring. In the process of signing up for the contest, I also decided to sign up for the Affiliate program. Their Speedy Hosting Plan is an unbeatable value for the price. The Speedy Hosting Plan starts at just $8.95/month + $25 setup fee (or signup for 24 months and get the plan for $6.75/month). What’s included you ask? Well let me tell you…

Another week has come and gone here at GrandmasterB.com, and I must say it flew by rather quickly. You know what they say though…time’s fun when you’re having flies. Is that right? With baseball season getting kicked off this past Monday; I didn’t take much time to concentrate on getting up new posts. Instead I decided to watch the Colorado Rockies squeak out a 2-1 win in their first game against St. Louis and then lose the next five games in a row. Perhaps this week I will concentrate on writing more, and who knows…maybe the Rockies will win a game without me watching. Onto the review…

I am so excited right now I can hardly contain myself! I just received an email from PJ at WP-Premiums and she has added GrandmasterB.com to the list of featured sites. I would like to thank PJ for considering my site to be featured and displayed along with all of the other fabulous blogs on her featured list. Below is a quote from the email:

Dear Grandmaster B,
I was so impressed by your great customisation of the Milk It theme that I’ve featured it on my showcase site at http://wp-premiums.com/ . I’m sure that your design will be an inspiration for others who are planning to design or customise their own WordPress-powered websites. Feel free to encourage your readers and supporters to visit and rate your site design.

Best wishes,
PJ

Thanks again PJ…and to all of my readers. If you should happen to check out WP-Premiums…please rate my site.
