Please vote for Tripawds in the "How do you .com?" contest.
Watch the video we submitted and read our entry essay here. Then click the vote button. Vote daily! Tell all your friends! If we win, we'll end the current
fundraising campaign immediately.
Verisign is hosting the contest to share stories of how ".com" has changed our lives. Anyone who has read about Jerry's story can atest the the fact that tripawds.com has certainly changed our lives! For the better, for sure. An iPad or cash prize would be nice change too.

Just VOTED!
Can you put a vote button on the main page, like the Chipin widget? Then we won't forget to do it daily?
Edited to add:
A PM to all 1200+ members with this information would really get the votes! Just a thought!

Thanks everypawdy! You're so sweet.
P.S. we're a little leery about sending out an email to our entire list with this, but thank you for the suggestion! We'll just keep on buggin' ya'll here!

I just voted ! You do a great service for all of us - I don't think a mass email asking for support (if people choose to do so) would be rude.

"Going Dog" def: living every day in the moment
"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."

We have added a link at the top of these forum pages to remind everyone to vote daily, which we hope you will all do considering we just noticed the leading entry already has nearly 700 votes.
Maybe we are just too nice, but we have too many members who have lost their dogs and no longer participate here to risk bothering the entire membership with a spammy message about something like this ... otherwise we would have sent out a notice regarding the 2010 Tripawds Community Campaign.
