Weblog Awards Bloggies 2008 - Asia : Time for some real blogs - Michael Turton and ESWN

Bloggies Weblog Awards has succeeded in choosing insignificant Asian blogs as the best Asian weblog for 7 years straight. I honestly don’t know how, but it’s time that this simple blog contest gets the right blogs. So, here are my nominations :

Weblog Awards Bloggies 2008 : Time for some real blogs - Michael Turton and ESWN

Michael and ESWN are not only blogs, they’re institutions, leaders of their niche. They’re a bit political, maybe controversial, but they provide an in-depth look into the topics that they cover in a professional way with a personal touch. For me - those blogs inspire me to be a better blogger.

Voting will commence January 22nd. If you can - either through this awards or in any other way - try to support Asian blogging excellence.

    [...] Since I already nominated him for Bloggies, might as well go all the way. I don’t think Michael’s aware of this, but almost every western international student I’ve talked to in NCKU knows his blog, and quite a few of them follow the blog religiously. When I tell them that Michael actually studies with us in the same building, sometimes the same courses, people refuse to believe me. [...]

    Those weblog award blogs are unimpressive. I think the blog rolls on yours, david in formosa, princeroy, and thenhbushman are much better then the winners and nominees for 2007. Who nominates them?
