Nominations begin for the Indibloggies 2008 edition

The nomination phase for the Indibloggies 2008 edition has been flagged off. Here is your chance to showcase your blog to the whole world and win laurels from your peers and readers alike :)

Nominations for 17 award categories would be open from 16 Feb 2009 to 28 Feb 6 March 2009. Do take a look at the sponsors page to know about the prizes at stake.

The nomination form is located at http://nom2008.indibloggies.org
Update [6 Mar 2009]: Nominations are now closed.

Rules, etc:

  • You may also apply to be a part of the Jury through the same form. (The primary function of the Indibloggies Jury is to do a peer-review or screening of nominated blogs. The final voting takes place from the top blogs chosen by the Jurors in each award category. Jurors are required to stay away from the Indibloggies 2008 contest.)
  • Please don’t ask your friends or readers to nominate your blog multiple times, simply because Jurors don’t consider the count of nominations as any criteria for rating. Moreover, self-nomination is perfectly OK. Please beware that repeated nominations for the same blog may be treated as spamming and may lead to disqualification.
  • Please only enter the web-address (URL) for the main-page. NO Blog title or permalinks to posts please.
  • Twitter and suchlike URLs are acceptable only for the Microblog category.
  • Indibloggies contest is limited to blogs written in English language only. We are considering holding Indibloggies for Indian language blogs in latter part of the year.

Happy nominating!
