Like I said, the people I've been in touch with have been very understanding -- with 1-2 exceptions, of course. This post wasn't really intended to be a reply to anyone who's complained, it's more just some thoughts on increasing visibility, which is what we're all trying to do in one way or another, for ourselves and/or our clients. :-) Thanks so much, Miriam.

These are all good suggestions. Frankly, I've been put off by the fact that people would complain to you about how you structured the SEMMYs this year. For gosh sakes, I know how much time you and David put in getting this put together, and the fact that you've voluntarily done all this makes complaints and sour grapes appear somewhat gauche and silly to me. Of particular concern is that people are saying "what about this post, did you forget this one?" when, at least to my thinking, your SEMMY awards are highlighting a larger number of lesser known authors (myself included) than many of the earlier awards. I think what you're doing is great, and I swear that's not just because my posts were included. It's a positive thing, and a nice incentive for up and coming bloggers to work hard in 2008 to increase their visibility, just as you are suggesting. Miriam Nice article, Matt.
