On Blog Awards
Hey Jennifer,
I read your post today mentioning the polls for the 2008 Weblog Awards. I recently wrote a feature length PBS article about the blog awards and got a chance to interview the administrator of the award and several of the nominees:

Anyway, I thought this was something you and your readers would find interesting.
take care,

Finalists for The 2008 Weblog Awards have been announced
There were over 5,000 nomination for us to sort through and visit, and it was a very difficult task. When the process pushed the potential voting dates too close to Christmas we made the decision to hold off voting until after the New Year.
From all of the nominations we have selected nearly 500 finalists in
48 categories. The full list of finalists is here:
