For me it&#8217;s already been of great value: simply checking out my fellow nominees has introduced me to many splendid sites I had not seen before. More folks to add to my suite of trusted and inspiring experts &#8230; what&#8217;s not to like about that?<\/p>\n<p>And those shortlist sites I <em>have<\/em> seen before?
