The Eighth Annual Weblog Awards
posted by kry in blogThe Eighth Annual Weblog Awards are on at the moment.
The process was as follows:
From January 1, 2008 until 10:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (GMT-5) on Friday, January 11, anyone could nominate their favorite weblogs.
That Sunday, January 13, 200 randomly selected voters received an e-mail. It will list the weblogs that have received the most nominations in ten categories. They had until 10:00 PM EST on Friday, January 18 to privately submit their five favorites (six for Weblog of the Year) for each category. The five (or six for Weblog of the Year) receiving the most votes will become finalists. I (Nikolai Nolan) only voted for the panel in the case of a tie for fifth place. This panel was on an opt-in policy.
On Tuesday, January 22, the finalists were announced and voting is open again to choose the winners.
Voting will close at 10:00 PM EST on Thursday, January 31. The winners will be posted on Monday, March 10.
One of the blogs I read on a regular basis - Londonist, was shortlisted in the Best European Weblog category. I have voted this afternoon. Let’s see who wins this year’s Weblog Awards…
