Ah, after a month of voting, finally the time has come for Chapeau to announce the 2009 industry winners and also most brilliant blog. Yesterday I read in a comment that this site has won the Chapeau 2009′s Best Technology Blog and I immediately went to Chapeau’s website to check it out which was true! Then I tried to view the flash video to see who won the 2009′s most brilliant blog but it was terribly slow maybe due to a lot of people were hitting hard on the site trying to find that out as well.
I couldn’t wait any longer, so I viewed the HTML source code, copied the direct link of the .FLV video file and used my RapidLeech server to download the video. It took less than a minute for my server to grab the flv video and then another minute to download to my computer. After viewing the video for 2 minutes, I was shocked but happy at the same time that they announced Raymond CC Tech Blog as the 2009′s MOST BRILLIANT BLOG! If the video loads slow on your side, I’ve uploaded the video to YouTube.
This blog manage to win the award and get this far is because of each and everyone one of you! I’d like to thank….
1. God for everything 2. My wife for supporting and being there for me whenever I felt like giving up 3. Chapeau for organizing this award contest 4. Voters for voting for me 5. Forum members for helping me by helping other people 6. Near 70,000 subscribers for accepting my articles every day 7. YOU, for your support and time in visiting this site whenever you can
Once again, thanks Chapeau and everyone who voted for me! Winning this award really gives a huge boost to continue working harder on this blog. Do stay tune as I have some really good tips and a huge giveaway coming very soon!
Note: Every finalist is required to give an acceptance speech but you know me, I prefer to stay anonymous so they did it for me ;)

Congrats. But… your posts lately have been more about free giveaways and things that don’t benefit a lot of people (people who wouldn’t use the product anyway) instead of actual computer related tech tips. When I first signed up, you were doing tech tips all the time. Its sad to see you don’t do that anymore.

congratulations…..this IS the best thing that has happened to the internet. I save all the blogs in a folder so I have a reference to everything I use, software that I’ve downloaded or tips, etc., Raymond is brilliant. Each day there is a new subject or topic and something that is so helpful that you do a doubletake, “wow, that’s interesting, going to try this one out”….I was able to fix a software problem because Raymond took the time to explain it, and he made it easy. Thanks for this blog, it’s a necessity, not a luxury.
