The 2010 Black Weblog Awards Finalists
Sunday, August 1, 2010 at 12:00PM
With over 10,000 ballots and over 32,000 nominations, This year has been our most popular year to date. We say that every year, but it's true! Every year, we just keep on growing.
In several categories, only one ballot separated the finalists. Talk about a close race! When we tell you that every nomination counts and you need to campaign if you want to win, we mean it.
We'll talk a little bit about our vote audit process and give you a couple of helpful hints in a later post, but for now, we present to you our 2010 Black Weblog Awards finalists.
If you're one of the finalists, then congratulations! Email us at staff@blackweblogawards.com to receive your finalist badge. Display it proudly!
We also have exactly one month left in our Kickstarter campaign for the 2011 Black Weblog Awards. If you haven't pledged yet, visit us at http://bit.ly/bwa2011 to give. The minimum donation is now just $1. One dollar! And I know some of y'all got paid on Friday. Take a few minutes out of your day and help us put on a live awards ceremony in 2011!
VOTING IS NOW OPEN!.
Voting will end on August 31; winners will be announced on September 1.
