So no more messages in my face asking me to vote every time I visit?

defunkt, mate, I expected to see a message in my face every time I visit any page on github with the announcement that you won. Seriously. Now I had to learn you won via twitter hours later. Not amused.

Ah that is so awesome, well done! I’m really pleased because i have really enjoyed using GitHub lately – it makes coding so interactive and fun! I nominated GitHub in several categories and voted for you a few times! :)

Congratulations guys! @defunkt: That cookie feature either doesn’t work or is broken, because sure enough that popup came everytime i opened github, even when navigating from page to page (Ubuntu, Firefox).
