While pop stars have the Grammys, actors & actresses have the Oscars and Simon Cowell's latest manufactured projects have the Brits, techie geeks such as myself have the annual pleasure of voting for the Top Virtualization Blogs.

This year as I went on the site to cast my vote for my usual top ten, I was surprised and delighted to see the SANMAN up for nomination. To say I'm chuffed is putting it mildly and I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all of the readers that visit this site.

While I sometimes struggle to try and blog as much as I want in my spare time, I'm extremely appreciative of the many readers that visit and take the time out to read my posts. It is indeed you that keep me motivated to stay up in the late hours of the night writing!

So if you haven't already here's a chance to vote for your own personal favourites of 2013:
