Quick Notes on Awards

12 January 2013, 1430 EST

We’re still getting ballot requests. They tend to come in waves. Indeed, the last one all came from individuals at the same university. Hmmm.

Anyway, if you’ve asked for a ballot and still haven’t gotten an email with instructions, let us know. All the information that you need about the nominees and procedures is now centralized at the 2013 OAIS Awards page.

Note that we ask voters to choose three (3) finalists for the Best Blog category, six (6) for the Best Individual Blog category, four (4) for the Most Promising New Blog, and five (5) for Best Post.

This means that, even if you have registered to vote for your friend’s blog, you really should take the time to read through the nominees so that you can make an informed decision about how to rank them. That’s why we created such a long window.
