HubNuggets: Read. Vote. Promote. 09/09/2009

Thanks for poppin' in to help narrow down the selection process. We, your HubNuggets Team, have gone through thousands of hubs within the past week to find 10 great hubs by new authors at HubPages.

Now we need for you to read through the 10 nominated hubs to find your favorite and vote for them and if you have the time and energy, help to promote that hub!

Next Wednesday, 09/09/2009 will be the date in which this week's votes count. The 5 Top HubNugget Nominees will be noted and newslettered out to thousands of HubPages.com subscribers.

In short, we need for you to: Read. Vote. Promote.

If you'd like a more in-depth explanation of how to HubNugget, Shirley Anderson has written a terrific hub on this process, HubNuggets How-To, Q & A.
