If only we had time to test them all out! We just chose what appealed most to us, which I imagine meant different things for different judges. Creativity was definitely a criteria for me :)

Regarding Google alerts, you can sign up with Google to receive emails whenever a word or phrase appears in news, blogs, or in general on the web. I have several that I receive, and one of them is “Bleeding Espresso.” That way when someone mentions my blog, it will hopefully come up in a Google alert (not *all* always do) even if someone didn’t use an internal link, which would normally show up on Technorati. They’re really useful for keeping up with news in certain areas–”law school” for me, for instance, now that I write for About.com on law school.
