JibberJobber.com is a Webware 100 Finalist (this is huge news)
JibberJobber.com is a Webware 100 Finalist (this is huge news) A few years ago my friends at emurse were recognized by Rafe Needleman fro CNets Webware. Rafe is a big voice in the web 2.0, online space (webware is software for the web get it?), and having a mention in an article he did was a big part of emurse getting some good traction in the market. Shortly after I saw the article I contacted Rafe with something like hey, check us out were cool too! Im guessing Rafe gets pitched hundreds of times a day and has to sift through a lot of meaningless (or ill-prepared) pitches. I was flattered when he finally did a writeup about JibberJobber on webware in November of 2006 (wow, that was a LONG time ago!). Then, I heard about the Webware 100, which is a list of 100 of the best web apps (that is, applications, not just brochureware websites). Oh how I longed to be on that list I dont think I came close to making the cut, however, and when I saw the list of Webware 100 winners I knew I didnt have a snowballs chance in ______. Until 2009, that is. A buddy of mine submitted JibberJobber as a Webware 100 finalist and forwarded me what he submitted. I was flattered that my buddy (I wont name him here hes in New Jersey and knows who he is!) submitted JibberJobber, and really happy with what he wrote about JibberJobber in his nomination (hes been watching JibberJobber since the very early days). Of course I didnt think Id make any cuts but Rafe emailed me about a week ago and notified me that JibberJobber is a finalist! Oh man what a terrific honor! Considering how big the winners of past are, like Amazon, BlogTalkRadio, Google, Craigslist, ebay, PayPal, Skype, Opera, Yahoo, Woot, iPhone, YouTube, etc. I dont think I have a chance at all they have traffic and reach that is extraordinarily larger than my reach but let me just sit here super flattered, and elated, that we even made it in the cut from around 6,000 nominations down to the final 300. What a freaking cool honor. Now, just because I dont believe we wont win doesnt mean I wont ask for your vote if you have a minute to spare, please head over and vote for your favorite job search organizer er, I mean, career management toolset, er, I mean, personal relationship manager, er you know what I mean ?? Thank you to J.R. in New Jersey for nominating me, and thank you for Rafe and team for letting me enjoy being a Webware 2009 finalist what a terrific honor! How big is this? It will be announced on the following sites: CNET.com (over 10 millions visitors a month), CNET Download (about 10 million visitors a month), CNET News (about 500k visitors a month), CNET Webware (about 130k visitors a month), and CBSNews (about 3.5 million visitors a month). And last year there were 1.9 million votes. This is huge !
