Blogisattva Awards Are Back - Nominations Are Open!

Gladly, the Blogisattva Awards are back. Tom Armstrong began this tradition a few years back, and after a hiatus (see here), the tradition is returning with Kyle Lovett, Nate DeMontigny, and I assume Tom (and some others) doing the difficult job of sifting through all the excellent Buddhist blogging going on out there to give us the winners (where I always discover new blogs to follow).

Nominations Are Open!

Feel free to use the Submit Nomination tab to nominate your favorite bloggers /blogs. The nominations are open for the time frame of Dec 1, 2009 to this Nov 1, 2010; so there is still plenty of blogging to do before the finalists are announced. We have already had quite a few entries!

We will finish up all the details soon and they will be made available up on the guidelines tab.

We still need a couple of folks to finish filling out the rest of the panel, so if you are interested please contact us at this email address. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions please feel free to make them here in the comment section or send us an email. (edit: The panel has been filled, thanks for everyone's interest!)

One last item, if you would like to have a logo for people to click on your blog so they can nominate you, or another blogger, you can use the following graphic and point it to http://www.blogisattva.org/p/submit-nomination.html.

Thanks and good luck!
