i would really appreciate it if you went to Valleywag and voted for my opponent for Valleywag web hotties contest. for some reason, Nick Douglas enjoys making fun of me ... (well, even my teammates at Rapleaf enjoy making fun of me ... so Nick is not alone ... in fact, even my family enjoys making fun of me ... there seems to be an odd pattern here) ... and nominated me for his contest (Nick is a very clever marketer ... he certainly knows how to bring traffic to his blog).
but seriously, i'd rather not win this contest. now, if it was "most interesting people in Silicon Valley" or "people who are committed to making the world a better place" (or even "craziest dancer"), i'd be lobbying for your vote. but instead, i ask that you vote for my opponent, Jonathan Grubb. I am officially declaring myself a non-candidate for office. I've never met Jonathan Grubb or ever heard of him before this contest, but he seems like a really worthy guy. here are his pics on flickr (if you want to see that he is actually "web 2.0 hottie" ... which means one has really cool stickers on their laptop or something). (i also heard he'd like to win really badly (even though he's been fortunately enough to have a super cool last name) ... i think he's like preparing television ads or something ... so go VOTE for Jonathan Grubb
