And that's my issue with it....all it was was a popularity contest. Nominees would win on name recognition alone, had nothing whatsoever to do with the quality of the actual product/service. A product that has 1000 users of which only 500 actually think it's good enough to vote for would win over a product that has 100 users of which 99 think it's the greatest. The first would win handily...but which of these would you prefer to use? ;-) So hopefully if anyone does come up with such community award again, it will not be based strictly on a number of votes system...but an actual ranking of the product/service. --- Mary Jo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get the answers you are looking for on the ColdFusion Labs Forum direct from active programmers and developers. http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/categories.cfm?forumid-72&catid=648 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:288113 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
