Vote until the cows come home!

Yes, I’m entered into the “Streamy” awards in the category of Best Video Blogger!

Give in to your primeval nerdy urge and vote for Dave by simply clicking on the link:

(Select “Best Vlogger”. Enter “David Jones”, “EEVblog”, and “http://www.eevblog.com”)
(be sure to enter the info exactly like that, it might dilute the votes otherwise)
(and don’t worry about the Twitter page thing it takes you to, you don’t need Twitter to enter)

Oh, and it gets better, you can vote once a day until Jan 22nd from each IP address. You know you want to!
Dave thanks you. The nerd world thanks you.

How cool would it be for an electronics nerd to win the category over some cute chick with a million viewers a week who just blogs about her makeup!
If I can get a thousand regular viewers to submit each day until Jan 22, that’s about 30,000 votes!
