Since I’m never going to be an a-list celebrity, I can aspire to be an a-list blogger, right?

To be an A-List Celebrity in Hollywood, it’s all about the amount of Vanity Fair, GQ, and People Magazine covers you can score. To be an A-List Bloglebrity on the Internet, it’s all about the amount of link love you can score.

I’ve had 174 links in the last 180 days, not too shabby for my little blog!

My sister is the queen of online contests, so whogets.com will be right up her alley.

The concept…register, enter, win. Become a whogets.com member, enter contests with winnings ranging from $10 to $600, and wait for the winner to be announced!

Contests take place in a “round robin” format, with all registered members being eligable for the first round. The second round randomly narrows the contestant pool down to 7 entrants, and gives members 7-14 days to vote for the grand prize winner.

Make sure to read their press release for all the juicy details…

Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) April 24, 2007 — Arcavate Corporation, a leader in web 2.0 innovation and fun, announces the beta launch of its newest site, whogets.com. WhoGets combines all the excitement of winning great prizes with the viral interactive power of a voting community.

In a game show format, WhoGets.com offers members the chance to win a huge array of prizes in its online contests. They simply enter the contests for the products that interest them. The contestant has the opportunity to tell the community members why they should vote for him. whogets members decide who wins each contest. The contestant with the most votes wins the prize. There are no offers to complete, and whogets will not solicite its members for any other offers. There’s no fee for membership or for joining the contests. If a member would rather skip the contest and buy one of the prizes outright, he can take advantage of the Buy It Now feature.

There isn’t any other site like whogets.com. We are excited to see where the community takes it. It should be fun

Every wonder about the person who finishes the marathon dead last? Wonder no more. Meet Jacob Seilheimer.

I’m pretty sure that by the time I finished, the Kenyans were already back in Africa celebrating.

Hysterical. And fabulous. I couldn’t do it.

Fast food commercials are so misleading. Most of it is made out of plastic and wax and doesn’t look anything like what you really get.

I’d still totally take a sausage McMuffin this morning.

Bollywood is huge, there’s no question about that. Perez Hilton is even blogging about wedding of Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan, calling them the Bradgelina of Bollywood. Aaapka Video is an Indian video sharing site where you can catch up on Bollywood Videos and upload videos you’d like to share with the world.
