WordPress Plugin Competition, WordPress Plugins

It is that time of the year again. We will be holding another WordPress Plugin Competition. The Plugin Competitions held in the past years have generated a tremendous amount of interest in WordPress and our entrants have come up with fantastic plugins such as WP Comment Remix, Manageable, Who Sees Ads and of course OneClick in addition to hundreds of others that were voted upon by readers like you. We have distributed thousands of dollars in prizes, helped popularize hundreds of plugins and have even prompted the adoption of various peices of code into the WordPress core. With WordPress 2.8 around the bend and the Google Summer of Code, I have very high hopes for this year. Here are some links for those that have not yet participated or looked into our past WordPress Plugin Competitions:

About 10 days back we announced that user voting has been opened up for the plugins in the WordPress Plugin Competition.
As of this post, the various plugins have received over 960 votes.
While this may seem to be a sizable number, it also means that many of our visitors have still not given their votes to their favorite plugins. Remember that there is a lot at stake in this competition and it would do justice for the plugin authors to receive your esteemed vote!
Meanwhile, our judges are busy testing and evaluating the plugins and we should have the results pretty soon.
Have you placed your vote yet? If not, then hurry before the voting closes!

WordPress Plugin Competition, WordPress Plugins

Today is the last day to submit entries to the WordPress Plugin Competition.

We will accept entries till 11:59 PM EST tonight. A little leeway will be allowed because of time differences across the world. However we will not accept any entries that come in tomorrow.
Please make sure that all entrants are registered on the Plugin Competition Blog and have written at least one post about their plugin entry
If you find a bug, please resend your entry. A plugin that crashes and burns in a fatal error on install is quite a downer to your chances at winning the competition.
Please send in your entries before the deadline to wpplugincomp [at] wltc [dot] net with the subject line as “WP Plugin Competition: Plugin Name“
There are over $3800 in prizes to be won in this competition
