2008 Weblog finalists announced
The 2008 Weblog Award Finalists have been announced. Becoming a finalist is a bigger honor than winning, because finalists are chosen by committee. Winning requires lots of votes, so bigger blogs have an advantage. Of course, that may be sour grapes because last year I was a finalist in the category of Africa and the Middle East and came in fifth–I’ll let you be the judge.
Looking over the list I found many Jewish and Israeli blogs.
Religion: Jew Wishes
Africa and the Middle East (I was a finalist in this category last year): Israelly Cool, Elder of Ziyon, and Fundamentally Freund.
Technorati Authority 201-300: Israel Matzav
Technorati Authority 51-100: Daled Amos
Congratulations to all the finalists and I wish them all good luck in the final competition. It takes a few days for voting to be set up.
If I missed anyone please let me know and I’ll add you.

I will have to tell Lorri at Jew Wishes “mazel tov” on her nomination. I think she once said she started blogging just to tell a few of her friends more about Judaism. I greatly appreciate whenever she visits my blog…she is so warm and kind.
And I’m glad to see Carl and Daled Amos as well. I read Israelly Cool sometimes. And I remember Elder of Ziyon had some hilarious video…was it about Hamas kindergarten?

Yes, Leora, there were good choices this year. Not as good as last year, but what can you do.
Jew Wishes: Thanks for visiting and good luck to you too.
Tami, it’s been fun catching up with you.
