  5. Next year you should really think about adding podcasts.

    They’re like blogs… for your ears.

  6. What does “snarkiest” blog mean?
    I’m a musician… do I qualify for music blog? What exactly qualifies you for a music blog?

    Just some questions I’d like answered.

  9. Categories are somewhat limited…nobody’s created a fashion blog category. And what about entrepreneurship? If you can’t tell, my blog is fashion-entrepreneurship :)

  10. the only catagory i would add would be “best blog by a child” there is a 12 year old boy from holland who blogs in dutch (and has an english translation page) that is so incredibly well done, but i dont know where to nominate a kids life blog so i will put it here and perhaps someone else will know :

  11. It took me a year to think of this again but it seems like it’s still a valid point… If you wish to pick the best of blogs regardless of host or software used, why only offer prizes from WiredHub?

    I know they’re a sponsor, and that the intention is to bring attention to worthy blogs, but if you are going to offer prizes in addition to recognition, isn’t that a little limited?

    I won services from them in last year’s BoBs and was denied them because I was an existing customer and my particular prize (first month free or something) was only for new customers.

    I am no longer a customer (long story) and so would not have a use for any of the prizes, nor would anyone else not using or planning to use WiredHub.

    Peace, babies.

  12. Hmmm, thats the first time i hear about blog awards.

    By Redstar on Dec 21, 2005

  13. I can’t believe you don’t have a fashion blog catagory!

    Ridiculous!

    Fashion blogs have had dozens of articles written about them this year, most recently in the New York Times, and some of the biggest fashion blogs are among the most often visited blogs going.

    But you’ve chosed to ignore them in favor of the all important “weight loss” blog.

    Again, Ridiculous!

  14. Good point Mindy,

    We do have other prizes, but I am a slacker and have yet to get them all together in one place where I can sort them and give them a home. We will be offering other prizes in addition to the hosting offered by Wired Hub.

  15. don’t apologize Jim.

    You are giving away a prize.

    If she doesn’t like the prize, tell her to not enter the competition.

  16. is there no category for political blogs? that’s pretty much all i read, so can’t nominate much else… though i would nominate http://eccentricfather.blogspot.com/ for best daddy blog… not sure if i did that in the right place or not, tho :)

  22. Hello Everyone,

    I am a golfer myself and I like to play whenever I get a chance.
    A short while ago, a very good friend of mine told me about a great golfing equipment and accessories website that has discounted prices on all their products, same day shipping in most cases and there is no state sales tax, they are paying that.
    So if any golfer here is ready to save some money on quality products at highly discounted prices, you might want to check out their site at; http://hoffmangolf.com

  23. I have recently begun my blog and I find such mechanism to be useful. But I think that design could be a bit more serious.
    Well – how can I add it, if I have little knowledge of HTML?
