Out With The Old, In With The New

Last year’s Black Weblog Awards had eleven categories, and after a year of thinking about how to expand and keep up with the changing pace of the blogosphere, three categories had to go:

• Best Blog Design
• Best Entertainment Blog
• Blogger of the Year

These categories may come back in the 2007 Black Weblog Awards, but that’s no guarantee.

The good part about getting rid of these categories is that it opens the door for several others! Here are the new additions:

• Best Blog Community
• Best Hip-Hop Blog
• Best International Blog
• Best Personal Blog
• Best Podcast
• Best Pop Culture Blog
• Best Technology Blog
• Best Teen Blog
• Best Topical Blog
• Best Video Blog

You can find out more information about these on the Categories page.
