The Blogpower team, of which I recently became a member, is running the first ever Blogpower Awards and nominations are closing soon (very soon – Tuesday 5th of June 21:00, London time… yes, I should have posted about this earlier).

Things are getting a little complicated, but you can read all about how the nominations work here. Basically in the various categories the blogs that get more than the required number of nominations will go through to the voting phase. So multiple nominations is what we’re looking for!

Below is the list of categories, of which there are 20. To nominate anyone (or even yourself), email the name of the category as it appears below, and include the name of the blog you’d like to nominate and its URL, to jameshigham-AT-mail.com (don’t forget that URL now!).

You can nominate as many blogs as you like in as many or few categories as you like. Here are the categories:
