CommentLuv that is. CommentLuv is a REALLY REALLY REALLY cool plugin (for wordpress and blogger) that will parse the rssfeed of the commenter on your blog and add a link back to their last post. Its really cool and its something I’ve been using on this site for a while as its nice to give a little luv back to those few souls who comment.

Well, they’ve taken a good thing and made it better if possible. You can now register on the commentluv site and get your own site profile. This does several things, namely it gets your blog out to even more people, but it also allows you to make better use of a ton of new features in the commentluv plugin. Another amazing thing is that with the new plugin, they’re running a really cool CONTEST!!

The First contest is starting soon (if it hasn’t already) and all you have to do to enter is leave a QUALITY (no spam here) comment on Delusions of Grandeur and you’re automatically entered to win! HOW SWEET IS THAT?? Oh and don’t worry the prizes aren’t going to be anything like english saddles, a box of macaroni and cheese or a tiger, but rather some pretty cool stuff.

The cool thing is that you’ll know almost immediately if you won as your post will come back as notification that you won instead of your last blog post. Its a pretty sweet setup and its even better as I don’t have to do anything for it! If you want to enter the contest, leave a comment. If you want to register, visit CommentLuv and register today!!

So the Olympics have been underway for less than a week and China is out to an impressive lead with the gold medal count. Don’t worry though, Michael Phelps is doing his part to bring the US back (with two of the three golds around his neck). Its interesting to see the count and how the contries are stacking up against each other. Apparently the Chinese did the math and found out that they could take 119 gold medals in competitions with more than one medal at stake (like Gymnastics or WhiteWater) and they’ve been focusing on those competitions. So far it seems to have paid off.

I watched the opening on Friday and like many, I was very impressed. Of course, it took $300,000,000 to do it up that well, but the choreography, the scope and the overall production were well worth it. Very good. London is going to have a tough time to out do this one…..

In light of the olympics and in light of the already going on Entrecard Contest here (I’m giving away 2k credits) I’m going to give away 1000 more Entrecard Credits. All you have to do is guess the amount of medals (Gold, Silver and Bronze) that the US is going to walk away with. The Closest to the actual amount with out going over will win! Entries must be added to this post (in the form of comments) by 8/20/2008 and only *ONE* entry per person. The winner will be announced on the 25th!!
