Competition Heats Up in the Gay Bloggies

-- Adam Lubitow from AfterElton.com

The Gay Bloggies competition, which I first posted about last month, is into its final stretch, with only five bloggers remaining. Last week’s blog topic required the competitors to pick their "Most Important Moment of 2007" and the responses are varied and all make for a great read.

My number one pick overall continues to be Puntabulous, who posted about a run-in he had with a homophobic coworker, though OMG Blog’s Frank almost got my vote with his realization of "The Power of the Vagina" (you haven't truly lived until you've watched the catchy dance remix). But my favorite post this week came from Fausto of the fabulous Feast of Fools podcast, with his moving tribute to his father, who passed away early this year. I’ve been impressed with Fausto’s entries thus far, but with this post he's suddenly become a front-runner.

You’ve got to love a contest where the finalists actually have to work to take home the prize. And, while I definitely have my favorites, any one of the finalists would be worthy of a first place finish (and the sweet prize package of money and free porn). The final winner of the competition  should be announced by the end of the month, so keep voting for your choice for Gay Blogger of the Year!
