Congrats! You’ll be hearing from me shortly. :)

We still have about 500 sites to go over along with my ToDo “need to check back on” list, which has about 100 sites on it. That should save yourself from going crazy and you have to remember this is the holidays. Enjoy this slow time. Enjoy the new sites. If you email me, I’m labeling the email but if I respond today with “I haven’t hit your site yet” that probably won’t give you the answer you are looking for. If you do not get in (or I’m not contacting you about your site) I can respond with the why if you wish and come the first of the year, we can talk about it.

  1. Edward Mills Says:

    Congratulations to all of you. And a big thank you to the Rulers for keeping this up through the holidays!

  2. Ollie Says:

    Congrats to all the new entrants today. And Smitten Kitchen (ahem) is a gorgeous site. Excuse me now while I go to the kitchen and fire up the stove…

  3. Tyme White Says:

    LOL Thanks Ollie.

    I almost put a disclaimer: “eat first, then open site” but I figured that experience of looking at the pictures, immediately getting hungry and pondering on the ease in which that happened was a must. :)

    Edward, thank you!

  4. LorriM Says:

    Congratulations to everyone!

    Divine, simply yummmmylicious, Smitten Kitchen…omg. I am drooling.

    And, I give my pecial admiration, and a big thank you to all of you, for working so hard during this holiday season…I can only imagine how overloaded you all are.

  6. Ralph Dagza Says:

    great selections

  7. Scott Says:

    Looks like with another day we have another wonderful set of additions to the network. Nice work!

  8. Shawn Blanc Says:

    Wow, congratulations are deffinately in order today. Like Scott said, another wonderful set of additions. Some excellent sites for sure.

  9. scottfrye Says:

    You know I’ve been checking this blog out like 3 or 4 times a day to see if I got in. This is awesome and I’m so happy that I got in. Thanks guys for accepting me.

  10. josue salazar Says:

    John TP? Seriously ? Sigh.

  11. Maddie Says:

    I’m developing my site and I have a blog page, but i don’t know how to add the page here.

  12. josue salazar Says:

    I mean, he probably is a great guy, but the stuff he’s done with his site… most bloggers really hate it.

  13. Veronique Says:

    Congrats to everyone, again.
    And congrats to the 9rules team, you do awesome work.

  14. shifting pixel Says:

    Now in 9rules Network…

    Ever had a horrible day at work, only to come home and have the rest of the day completely ruined by problem after problem? Well, the exact opposite happened to me today.
    Work went great and I came home to a fantastic surprise—shifting pixel was…

  15. Gnorb Says:

    Congrats to all the new sites, although I’ll probably avoid Smitten Kitchen like a fat person avoids salads without dressing, since there’s a fair chance I’d try to consume my monitor while reading that site. (Seriously, though, I love cooking, so that one’s definitelly getting bookmarked, if not seen often for the sake of my now-finally-shrinking waistline.)

    Tyme: Thanks for the note and explanation. Now I don’t feel quite as bad, although I would have liked to see whether I got in or not *before* I left for vacation.

    What happens if you send out an acceptance note but the author doesn’t reply back? How long will it be before you rescind the invitation?

  16. John Snarz Says:

    I agree with what Josue said, “John TP? Seriously ? Sigh.” =/

  17. Freakitude Says:

    Good to see Johntp in.

    Congrats to others as well. :D

  18. Max Says:

    Congratulations to all of you! This is a very beautiful round of accepted sites. I can’t wait to see more from all of you.

  19. karmatosed Says:

    Big congratulations to everyone.

  20. Pam Says:

    Congrats to everyone and many, many thanks to 9rules for including Make the Most of U on your great site!! It is an honor to be among so many awesome blogs! Thank you!

    May you all have a wonderful holiday and may 2007 be the best ever!!

  21. J Phill Says:

    Congrats peoples! Some good sites in there……..and the feeds expand!

  22. Steven Aitchison Says:

    Congratulations to everyone who is in. JohnTP’s blog was one of the first I bookmarked when I first started blogging. Good round.

  23. Tyme White Says:

    Josue: clue me in, what are you talking about? Shoot me an email.

    Gnorb: if you do not respond to my email, I will send it again, especially with the holidays. I don’t retract it, I just keep trying. Like The Daily Sunrise, he was accepted months ago but he didn’t get the email(s). So I announced it on the site then we still played email tag for a bit. I don’t give up. :)

  24. Me in 9rules - Aside at AnimeLife Says:

    [...] Just wanted to announce that this site has been accepted into the 9rules blog network. I’m currently waiting for a email by them. I will go into more details when I hear back from them. [...]

  25. Ilya Grigorik Says:

    Wow, christmas came early this year! I’ve been a fan of 9rules for ages, and now I’m a part of it! Absolutely-freaking-awesome. :)

    Can you tell I’m excited? :)

  26. Gnorb Says:

    Tyme: Thanks for the response. I believe I half-sent you my reply and will be sending the other half shortly. Life, it seems, has a twisted set of humor, as well as various means by which to tell a person that its time to get away from the internet for a little while.

  27. Gnorb Says:

    “it’s’, not “its”

  28. igvita.com » Blog Archive » Season’s Greetings! Says:

    [...] Speaking of presents, I received two of them early this year! First, as the leaf logo on the left implies, yours truly is now part of the 9rules network. I’m really excited to join their community; I’ve been a fan and a frequent visitor for a long time, and now I’m a part of it! If you haven’t already, I strongly encourage you to check out 9rules blogs, you’ll find a plethora of raw, uncut and downright brilliant content. I’m looking forward to pitching in my two cents to the cause! [...]
