We here at SFist are high-minded individuals who do what we do for the joy of it (because it sure ain't for the money, honey). So why do we find ourselves suddenly obsessed with the idea of winning the Best Local Web Site award in this year's SF Bay Guardian Best of the Bay? Sure, we love the Guardian (well, technically, Rita loves it for all of us), but it's not like the approval of its readers is necessarily indicative of quality, as evidenced by the truly horrible 2001 Best of Bay winning sushi place down the street from us.
Maybe it's because we love the idea of folks going through the pain in the ass intrusion of "registering" with real (or false) personal information in order to vote for us. Maybe it's because we need some sort of balm to ease the heartbreak caused by some of our more careless commenters. Maybe it's just because we WANT TO WIN.
Screw motives, vote for us before 5 p.m. today! Once you've registered, choose "City Living", then enter us in the "Best Local Web Site" category. Or not. We don't care. OK, we do, and we're clearly not too proud to beg.

SFist finished second (well, everyone not winning finished second, ok?) to the DailyKos for best local blog in the Weekly's reader poll. As if who is gonna win the Connecticut Dem primary was SF local. SFist got robbed by national interests. The SFBG can do better.
