The nominees for the Deutsche Welle’s 2005 international Best of the Blogs competition — the BOBs — were announced today. More than 100 Weblogs will be judged by the Internet community in 13 categories.
BlogHer co-founder Lisa Stone was on the jury that narrowed the list of 2,500+ nominated blogs to a list of about 100 finalists in various categories, such as:
• Best blog overall
• Best podcast
• Best multimedia blog
• Best journalistic blog
Ourmedia is nominated for Best Multimedia Blog. So, please vote! If you’re online, you can vote.
Some of these are sites that maintain group or individual blogs (like Ourmedia, New West, Global Voices), others are solo blog efforts, like Zadi Diaz’s Karmagrrl. Congrats to all the nominees.
You can vote through Nov. 20. I’m not crazy about the idea of displaying the voting results as they come in, but there you go.
