I participated in
the 2006 Weblog Awards, and recommend you do also. They have a plethora of different categories, and I only put my two cents in for a few of them. Here's some I recommended:
Best Blog:
Hot AirI don't even have to explain this one. Just go to
Hotair.com and you'll see why it's the best on the web.
Best Liberal Blog:
Christopher Hitchens WatchChristopher Hitchens Watch is one of the most reliable and lively blogs out there. The blog is meant to be a constant rebuttal of the work of the prolific pundit Hitchens, who writes Slate and Vanity Fair, among others. Ironically, CHW is updated more frequently than Hitch's own site. If you're looking for Hitch's latest commentary, it's the place to go.
Best Humor Blog:
Scatbug's ScatteringsI could have easily put this one in the running for best conservative blog, but I didn't. Jack Egel is brilliant and hilarious, and he has law enforcement connections. Those connections have managed to get him off the records meetings between Kim Jong Il and Barack Obama, interviews with Osama bin Laden and Barack Obama's job interviews.
Best Centrist Blog:
MeI put
Deschamps Blog up as the best centrist blog, seeing as I regularly differ with the more conservative readers of my blog. I can not be called a liberal because of my support for the war on terror and my support for free markets, but I regularly differ on issues such as stem cell research and the death penalty.
