Rated 4.6/5 stars (112 votes cast)

Only three days after the only poll was released to the public. The votes have been pouring in from everywhere. Bloggers on the list apparently utilized every possible avenue they have to get the voice.

It appears that this is how things are going to be from now on..

Couple of the bloggers started Facebook, Hi5 and Myspace groups to rally more of their friends to their cause. While others sent mass emails. A third choice was getting votes by posting personal articles to get the attention of their readers. Some even promoted through online forums

It's still early to judge who's going to win this vote, although Bakkouz has a head start, but this is the online world of the Internet. A smart email sent to the right group of people might generate hundreds, even thousands of hits. It all depends on how you approach people

If you didn't vote yet, go ahead vote for your favorite blogger ...

Unless ...

Unless you're like me, and many others who are so confused who to select. Because as many have attested. The list is awesome! These are truly very popular bloggers. Among the top

Few of the AMAZINGLY good bloggers are absent from this poll. Sabbah, hareega and a good number of others. The are missed. But I decided not to add Sabbah because he's already known world wide. His position is very well respected. Not only that, but that addition would have devastated the poll. I do apologize to Sabba7, but he's just not good enough for this. He's TOO GOOD for it :)

As for Hareega, rest assured. He's going to be the top of the second round. No doubt.

If you would like to nominate someone .. please, feel free to do so ..

The vote results will be announced world-wide Sunday night ...

Yes, the list is definitely missing Hareega, Jameed, Khalaf, No Angel, Yugi, Mazz, PalForce, Na3ouri, and other great bloggers ... and of course YOU! I'd like to see where you'd rank ;-)

but DAMN! People started Facebook groups? Mass emails?

Qwaider, by confirming that yourself, this means that this poll is not accurate at all!

No who-sane, it's to the contrary, people call on their friends to come and aid them. That's normal my friend. Just like el-intikhabat.. it's all about who you know :)

Qwaider: I'm blogging incognito .. I'm Who-sane to the whole world .. no one from my friends of family or colleagues know who I am ... that's why I'm saying it's unfair! I can't create a facebook group and I can't send mass emails to my buddies or colleagues, simply because, again, I'm Who-sane!

So to start a facebook group or to send mass emails to buddies is out of line and it does not represent the people's REAL favorite blog.

Again I would like to reiterate to everyone here: if it was up to me, I would NEVER, E-V-E-R, want to be on that list, the people on that list are AMAZING! I love them all ... and you guys are the reason the Jordanian Blogosphere is A-listed amongst others .... maybe I'm underestimating myself, but if I had to choose between underestimation and vanity, I'll always prefer underestimation!

Good luck to everyone on that poll ... and good job Bakkouz, I admire how Caucasians from the whole world stick together in these times :), unfortunately I can't call out to the irbidawiyeh of the world to vote for Who-sane, the unknown anonymous blogger :)

and to mohanned, even if you did call out to the sal6iyeh, what's the the internet penetration rate in el sal6? I feel with you bro :)

In my opinion Ahmad Humeid is by far the most succinct Jordanian blogger, he has no rival in Jordan and it wouldn’t be fair to list him with the others. He is ubiquitous in every sense of the word; his vicissitudianry ideal represents a mélange juxtaposing Rami Khoury in politics, Fahed Fanek in economy, and Ahamad Majdobeh in pedagogy.

I completely respect your view of Ahmad. In fact, he's one of my favorites and a daily must read.
But the way things are, and with all due it's not about my favorite or yours. Although I personally value your opinions so highly more than you can imagine.
But the way things are is that people like and enjoy different favorites. It might be related to age, gender and interests. But it's a fact of life. People love different things.

Why in the world do you use those hard to read, impossible to know, too lazy to google them, words?!
