  • Update - The 2009 Weblog Awards are off (Will Weblog Awards Ever Return?)

    The 2009 Weblog Awards ^ | January 6, 2009 | Kevin Aylward
    It is with a great deal of regret that I must inform everyone that The 2009 Weblog Awards are canceled. Unfortunately the resources required to handle the load of voting (nearly 1,000,000 votes in 2008) could not be adequately provisioned. Even if the servers and bandwidth required appeared today it would be at least a few weeks before everything could be ready for voting. This has always been a very, very labor intensive process, and in recent years with our success a very expensive competition to run. It's hard to have unlimited resources provisioned for seven days of voting. In...

    Best Weblog Awards 2008 ^ | January 12, 2009 | Weblog Awards of 2008
    Watts Up With That is a weblog that focuses on the science of "Climate Change". They actually take time to critically think about the claims of the "warmer alarmists" and to consider the evidence. So as you can imagine, they are skeptical of the claims of the hardcore warmers such as Al Gore and the Hockey team. Reasons to vote. 1) To piss off Al Gore. 2) To reward a truly great blog that actually delves into the science without the scare mongering of the leftist blogs. How to vote.

    WOW! What an wild 24 non-business hours it has been! The Leftwing Blogosphere has ERUPTED in a wild firestorm of obsession about even the fact that the DUmmie FUnnies is a finalist in the 2007 Weblog Awards (vote for the DUmmie FUnnies as FUnniest Blog by clicking HERE). For starters, Head DUmmie Skinner has allowed not just ONE but TWO threads obsessing over the DUmmie FUnnies to go up on the DUmmie "Greatest Page." This is an historical first. Previously you could count the deletion in seconds of any thread/post in DUmmieland mentioning the DUmmie FUnnies in any way...

    Well, folks, a lot has happened in the the past 24 non-business hours because of our placement in the Weblog Awards (Click HERE to vote for the DUmmie FUnnies as FUnniest Blog). A major portion of the Leftwing Blogosphere has gone completely BERSERK at the possibility of the DUmmie FUnnies winning the Weblog Awards. You think I'm kidding? Just for starters, the DUmmies in stark contrast to previously forbidding any mention of the DUmmie FUnnies in any form (posts/threads mentioning us there were deleted within minutes previously), now have not ONE but TWO threads on their "Greatest Page" dedicated...

    The DUmmie FUnnies are under a bigtime attack by an organized campaign by the Leftwing Blogosphere to keep us from winning as FUnniest Blog in the 2007 Weblog Awards. Late yesterday afternoon the DUmmie FUnnies, thanx for the most part to Freeper Power, was leading in that poll by almost 700 votes. Then the Left got desperate. They just can't tolerate a blog, dedicated to mocking and satirizing their many foibles to win that award. Therefore, led by Sadly No! and the Democrat Underground, a host of leftwing websites is now targetting us by urging their readers to vote for...

    You humble correspondent has taken leave of his normal peaceful abode and is now reporting to you from the frontlines of the 2007 Weblog Awards FUnniest Blog battlefront. We are now under heavy attack due to a powerful assault upon the DUmmie FUnnies by the extreme leftwing Sadly No!

    Weblogs 2007 Voting Page ^ | Today | MtnClimber
    An anti-religious website is about to take the lead in the "Funniest Blog" category of the 2007 Weblogawards. The site name is "Sadly No!" and it won last year. A fellow Freeper is in the running with a site named "DUmmie FUnnies" that takes a humourous look at posts on the left wing site "Democratic Underground". This site is currently in the lead by only a few votes and, though it is not a religious site, help is requested to prevent the Sadly No! site from winning.

    Okay, I didn't post a DUFU edition today because I was NERVOUSLY awaiting the announcement of finalists in the humor category of the 2006 Weblog Awards. I just found out a few minutes ago that the DUmmie FUnnies did not make the final cut. I am completely bummed out at this point because I thought I had an EXCELLENT chance of winning the award (with Freeper support) IF I had been a finalist. Maybe I should have said I WAS completely bummed out. Right now I am slowly recuperating with a germ of an idea developing in my head...

    Nominations for The 2006 Weblog Awards are now open. Go to the master nomination post to start nominating blogs in 46 categories. There's a bunch of new categories this year, but the number of finalists in each category will drop from 15 to 10 (with a few exceptions). As always, we're always looking for volunteers to help with the finalist selection process. Linkable logos are available in a variety of sizes, so start spreading the word!

    This is important! A couple of our own are losing badly to far left blogs in Wizbang's Weblog awards. I wouldn't care, but the fact is they're only losing because Daily Kos, DU, Crooks and Liars and and other radical left-wingers are pleading with their readers to keep conservatives from winning. Please support these blogs! You can vote once every 24 hours until December 15th: Michelle Malkin for Best Blog. She's losing to Daily Kos. This can't happen! Vote for Wuzzadem for Best New Blog. Wuzzadem is a Freeper, and is losing to a terrible blog called "Yellow Dog Blog",...
