Thanks to everyone who has submitted nominations and cast votes for this year's Silicon Alley 100 list. In addition to learning that many of our readers aboslutely adore BlogTalkRadio CEO Alan Levy, we've gotten some very helpful feedback. We'll be putting it to good use as we finalize the 100 list.
But we're not done yet: We're still taking nominations, and tallying votes, through the end of Friday, September 26. So go ahead and use our handy nomination/voting tool, created by our pals at Slinkset, and let us know who we ought to be thinking about as finish up our deliberations.
We'll unveil the list at the end of next month: Stay tuned for sneak previews, and a chance to win a couple tickets to our (seriously) excellent and exclusive coming-out party.
Meanwhile, if you're looking for inspiration, check out these then (Silicon Alley Reporter's Top 100, circa 2000) and now (the 2007 SAI 100) lists, helpfully provided by First Round's Chris Fralic:
