    Hi Custard,

    This being an annual contest, we want to do this mainly for bloggers (internal & external).

    Having said that, this would be a good opportunity for many members to take up personal blogspace in IL and start blogging.

    So, if you can meet the blogging requirements of IL, why not take a personal blogspace in IL and kick-start blogging by posting an entry for this contest? Good Luck!

    Thanks Indusladies for registering my entry for the contest
    I wish to write more.

    I have also informed by email to the bloggers tagged by me about the rules of the contest and that they can also post the blog in Sulekha with the IL banner.

    One blogger Sridharaa, my dear friend has also told me that he has registered for Indusladies on my reference.

    Keeping my fingers crossed for the results of the contest :)

    Warm Regards
    Suresh

    Hi Satchidananda,

    Thank you for interest in participating in this contest. We would appreciate "the best" entry from each blogger rather than multiple entries.

    Also, tagging is to mainly to get a wider reach for this contest. Bloggers within IL will get to know it thro' our banner displays, newsletters and other form of announcements and will get to participate if interested. So we want tagging of bloggers outside IL, for that would help increase participation from outside IL.

    HELP, HELP, HELP:drowning:drowning:drowning

    i am hopelessly lost. i have typed in the entire entry and attached the
    contest banner. i tried to tag 3 non-IL members, by going to their blogsites and copying their addresses and pasting it in the tag box, but got the message that the tags were too long.

    i am totally new to all this, but want to submit an entry called "the new age woman" for the contest..

    please help. please give me a complete idiot's guide on how to tag the other bloggers. as of now, i have just submitted the entry with the links of the co-bloggers mentioned at the bottom of the post. could you please help me tag them, so that my entry would be complete? it would be very sad if i could not submit it after all, since i have written the entry for this exclusive purpose.

    thanking you,
