Microsoft Dynamics Top 100 Most Influential People for 2011 voting is open

Last month, I mentioned that DynamicsWorld in the UK were getting nominations for the Top 100 Most Influential Microsoft Dynamics People for 2011.  See the post: What's been happening around the Blogsphere for more details.

Well, the time for nominations is over and now it is time to vote for your choice.  There are 260 nominees and your votes are needed to decide who is most influential. The following description is from the voting site:

Although not a popularity contest the thoughts and views of our visitors is important as it shows us who has a wider influence. We base our selections on a number of criteria including: Number of nominations received; Number of Microsoft Dynamics employees employed; Number of clients your ISV/VAR has; As an end user how many user licences taken; Social Media Followers (bloggers/twitter/ linkedin) (bonuses for group owners); Number of years experience of Microsoft Dynamics; MVP Recipients; Developers of add ons and new verticals; Speakers and writers about Microsoft Dynamics; Forum contributors and Number of votes received.

However you might want to vote for someone for your own reasons, and all votes count.
