This is the last day to vote for the Shareware Industry Awards.

Today [May 30] is the last day, actually just part of a day, that those who are registered can vote for the Shareware Industry Awards. Voting closes at Noon MDT [2:00pm EDT], so as I write this, there is less than 10 hours remaining. Hurry!

The SIA nominees this year are interesting, too. The Best Application category has two strong candidates, ClipMate and CSE HTML Validator (against Open Orifice); it is unfortunate that they cannot both win. I am glad to see WISCO Word Power in the Best Educational Program or Game category, as well as Auction Sentry Deluxe nominated for Best Hobby or Personal Interest Program.

Of course, my primary (selfish) interest is in the Best Game – Non Action/Arcade category, where our Pretty Good MahJongg is nominated. I am completely biased, but I will nevertheless say: Please vote for Pretty Good MahJongg!

For those not in the shareware industry, or who did not get registered to nominate and vote for the Shareware Industry Awards, you can still support your favorite software (including Pretty Good MahJongg, hopefully) in the SIAF People’s Choice Awards. Voting for these awards is open to anybody (with an email address) and all software is eligible. If you want to vote for your favorite programs this year, you can do so by registering at http://www.siavoting.com/pcregister.php and then submitting your selection of up to 7 (seven) programs before tomorrow [May 31].

“I Voted.”
