Here are just some of the Moviestar.ie DVD player winners on Saturday night. Thanks for sponsoring 30 DVD players and 3 months free subscription to everyone that attended.

Bonus Edit: If you forgot the code that will give you a free 3 month subscription to Moviestar.ie, it’s IBA981

In no particular order I’d like to thank the following people who put in a lot of effort to make the Blog Awards happen. They have made it the best Blog Awards ever and just added more pressure to make “Blog Awards 4: Blog Harder” even better again. This is the number of people that a humble awards like the Blog Awards needs to get it to work. And all voluntary!

Elana Kehoe for all her previous Blog Awards work and Brendan for the Sushi!

I know a lot of people have given thanks here and on other blogs but a good way of doing so for these folks is to subscribe to their above blogs or visit them all on a regular basis. They’re champions. Another post will thank the sponsors.

Grannymar made an excellent point in her acceptance speech about comments being the lifeblood of blogs. Do try and leave comments and encourage those that you read.

We now have a charity auction for one of the Blog Awards posters. Bidding starts optimistically at 50 quid. All money goes to St Franics’ Hospice.

A proper thank you blog post will follow but for reference this chap below, the famous photographer McAWilliams is the guy that has now made it almost impossible to make Blog Awards 4 be better than this year. John was the one who gathered a team of professionals and went off and created all those video intros last night. Everyone wants copies. Everyone seems to think it defined the Blog Awards this year. No mean feat. Yes, I’ll see can they be put on YouTube.

So, thanks to all those who did the vids:
