Well, I was not sure if it was appropriate for me to award you with the award you had helped me create but I could not help it because you deserve it so much!
And I wanted you to be surprised!
I am sure if I had not given the award to you, you would have received it anyways... but I could not wait that long. :P
I don't know if my schmooze muscles are near as big as yours... And stop saying I cheated! I am just glad I got to do this with you, so don't feel bad at all.:P
BTW - How do I let my non-cheaty recipients know? Do I leave a comment in their blog, or do I just wait for them to see in Technorati?
Hehe...that's a good question :P If they're using Wordpress there's a good chance they'll see a ping in their dashboard because you're linking to them. Actually I guess that grabs its info from Technorati, right?
I suppose you could just go tell them. That might be quicker ;D
I went through a bit of blog design tonight, so I'll add it tomorrow first thing. Cause if I mess up with my template more tonight, I'll end up sleeping at 3 am (you know what is it, right ? ;) ).
I have to pick 5 people now... Ummm... gonna do some blog reading tonigh instead to catch up with all these talents !
Well congratulations! You deserve it absolutely, and I was so glad to present you with this award. Have fun presenting your awards - I really enjoyed selecting my recipients, and I am sure Mike did as well.
I think it is a pretty cool idea, as well. Not just because Mike and I are responsible for the creation of it, but because awards are fun to give and get, and it is a nice way to recognize bloggers who make an effort to mingle with others.
I totally knew he would react like that too, but I threw caution to the wind and went for it! I really felt he should be one of the first to received this award.
I know, Mike! I am so excited to watch the wave of schmooze make its way around to different blogs. The schmooze is a powerful thing. :P I am going to try to follow it around and check out all the schmoozers.
Yes. I was thinking something similar but I was getting a little bit crazy in my thinking (ie. I started thinking about making a flow chart - a schmooze family tree). Geez I think too much! :P
hi Danielle I am the recipient of your award...thank you ...a great idea....do you have the code for your award as I will put it on my front page....I wasn't sure who to link back lol...you or Mike my e mail is kim@laketrees1.com thank you and all the best with your schmooze family tree regards Kim
You can just save the image and upload as it is now YOUR award, and link to the post where you were presented the award.
And I am really glad you like this idea - I think it is a nice award that recognizes bloggers for another aspect of blogging besides just having great posts.
Wow, thanks Danielle! I just recently got back online - some lovely Florida lightning totally sizzled my modem (long story), so I'm just now getting a chance to see this post.
You must know that your kind words here do indeed mean a lot. Plus, it's always great to see how we as bloggers are perceived by our fellow bloggers.
So I'm glad to know that someone who's just recently encountered me, and who doesn't yet know me in person, can describe me in such favorable ways. Like I said, it means a lot. :)
Shine on, Aaron
PS: Keep your eyes peeled for a lovely mention on my blog. ;)

Hey you didn't say you were going to pick me :P

I am sure if I had not given the award to you, you would have received it anyways... but I could not wait that long. :P
Haha...well I'm honored to receive the very award I helped create with you :P
You certainly deserve one as well and if I'd known we were going to cheat and give them to each other, I would have :D
Now I'm feeling bad because I didn't cheat...lol.

Yes, I will go tell them I think - I am very impatient and excited for them to know.
You rock girl ! :$

Hey hey! I didn't even know I had Schmooze, and now I get an award for being a "Schmooze Expert"! How cool is that?!
Thanks Danielle. It feels good to be Schmoozed.
I figure the best Schmoozers don't even really know they are schmoozing. It just happens naturally!
I love that you awarded Mike... good thinking, you! :)
She's a sneaky one, isn't she? ;)
Our schmooze seems to be a hit so far...hehe ;P
I totally knew he would react like that too, but I threw caution to the wind and went for it! I really felt he should be one of the first to received this award.

Wave of schmooze...hehe :D
It could be neat in a week or so to put together a link love post featuring schooze award winners. Sort of a schmooze hall of a fame :)
Yes. I was thinking something similar but I was getting a little bit crazy in my thinking (ie. I started thinking about making a flow chart - a schmooze family tree). Geez I think too much! :P
Haha...I like the idea of a family tree :P
I think it'll be interesting to search the word schmooze on Google in a week or two and see what kind of results it shows :P
Alright, I've done my homework and spreaded the schmooze spirit around me !
A busy blog week-end
;)
