2009 BWA Postmortem
By BWA Staff
Another year, another Black Weblog Awards has come and gone. This is the fifth year we’ve put on these Awards, and every time, I learn something new. The blogosphere is changing for us, and we are definitely changing the blogosphere in many ways. I think that was definitely reflected in this year’s winners and in our finalists.
SXSW Panel Voting Ends Tonight!
By BWA Staff
Thanks again to you all for voting in this year’s Black Weblog Awards! We’ve got some big things coming up for next year, including, but not limited to, our panel idea at SXSW 2010. Our panel is called “Black Blogging Rockstars”; here’s the synopsis:
Past SXSW panels have shown that Black bloggers and bloggers of color are becoming more prominent and well-known as the years progress. From “Blogging While Black” to being “Digital Urbanites”, being a Black blogger is definitely not limited to any monolithic stereotype. Learn from some of the pioneers and thought-leaders in the Black blogosphere on our past, present, and future.
Voting for panels ends tonight at midnight, and we would really appreciate your support in helping to celebrate Black bloggers on a global stage!
