Looks like it’s that time of year again: Nikolai‘s posted the finalists for the 2003 Bloggie Awards.

I completely missed the whole nominations process, living in my own little world, but apparently a bunch of you didn’t miss it, as Fury got nominated for ‘Best Programming of a Weblog Site,’ alongside Textism, ScriptyGoddess, Metafilter, and Kuro5hin.

I remember when this happened last year I felt compelled to quickly introduce new functionality, to prove (to myself more than anyone else) that Fury was worthy of competing with MF and K5.

So of course this year’s no different. I’ve got some functions I’ve been working on for a few weeks and I’m about ready to incorporate them anyhow, and the unexpected Bloggies is just a convenient motivator.

Okay, enough of that. Go vote!
