I read it the same way you did, and thought the same thing about the Sitepoint ID. Honestly, you can have ANYONE bid on it. Certainly they’d both bid it up high.

Cheap publicity. I remember John Chow and Shoemoney doing something similar about six months ago with a contest on who could get the most readers signed up to their RSS thingy.

Hmmm, I wonder if it’s a stunt to get people to go to their blogs. For all we know, they could have planned the whole thing!
I too, hate blogging contests, I’m glad to see others do too!
