B4L Blog Awards 2006 Update - 3 comments

OK, you've got about 5 and a half days left to nominate blogs for our awards. Here's the current state of play, with regard to the number of nominations in each category.

Best Blog [6]
Best Newcomer [4]
Best Young Blogger [1]
Top Blogging Personality [6]
Best Blog of an Elected Representative [4]
Best Trade Union Blog [2]
Best Use of Technology [2]
Best Community Activism [1]
Best non-Labour Blog [5]
Wooden Spoon Award (all blogs) [2]

I'd certainly like to see a lot more nominations than that: between 5 and 10 in each category is more what I had in mind. Nomination is open to everyone, you know.

To help, I've moved the cutoff date for young bloggers back a year to July 1st 1984 to help there; meanwhile, I'm surprised that nobody's nominated any Tory bloggers in the Wooden Spoon category (are you quite sure?) Where are all the trade union blogs? Doesn't anyone read our Councillors' musings?

Nominations close at midnight GMT Saturday 2nd December.

Bizarre?

But nevermind. Tom's site is probably the best one anyway - now he's back with a bang! :-)
