- Black Weblog Awards
Update: Sunday August 2nd. There seems to be a problem with the 2008 Black Weblog Awards site. I’m not in direct contact but sure they’re on the job.
Second Update: Looks like Issues Resolved with the website. According the blog this was due to server issues. They are looking to purchase a dedicated server. Your donation would help to manifest this.
So I got word that voting starts today for the 2008 Black Weblog Awards and since I have many friends of the darker persuasion I nominated a bunch.
There are more categories available so if want me to consider nominating your blog and your African American let me know in the comments.
My choices:
Best Hip Hop Blog: http://www.soulbounce.com
Best LGBT Blog: http://www.pamshouseblend.com
Best Music Blog: http://www.okayplayer.com

Please consider my blog for the science/tech category:
Urban Science Adventures! It’s a blog about ecology, environmental science and environmental education.
And in a effort to be selfless —
There’s another science blog - Science to Life, that I personally like, too.

I’d love it if you considered my food blog:
NYAM adventures in cooking and eating
http://www.nyamfoood.blogspot.com
:o)
It’s basically just my interpretation of various dishes from around the world, though I have a soft spot for highlighting flavors of african diaspora…

@DNLee
You have an amazing site! I am an amateur lover of physical science! Can’t nominate but have provided a note. Good Luck!
@Sylvia
That’s how we roll in Twitterdom! You deserve the note and Kevin is a sweetheart for giving the nomination for Best Personal Blog!
