Comments on: Just Blog it! http://www.indibloggies.org/just-blog-it India's first and very own desi blog awards, the Indibloggies are publicly-chosen awards conferred on bloggers from India and of Indian origin settled elsewhere.

Awards are all about subjectivity; your choice would be different from mine. This is the very reason we went for a big Jury, to get the maximum out of the myriad opinions. You are damn right about the navigation problem. I just forgot to point the "Nominations" menu item to the right post. The post title has also been altered to tell what's inside. Hope that helps!

The first time around, i could not find the list of nominations first-hand. I actually needed someone to tell me that its hidden somewhere in the second post on this page. Secondly, if you have jurors, you expect them to have greater expertise than the general public. I fail to understand how that word-press theme slip-up could have happened. (not to mention the fact that many of the blogs you have listed in the best design category use modifications of word press themes). What do you need the jurors for? Thirdly, i have serious issues with the quality of the process. look at the stage 1 results for the best tagline. one tagline that actually misspells the word 'existence' (i'm not going to point out which one).two unoriginal latin phrases. a tagline that was a straight take from The Hitchhikers Guide (and has subsequently been changed to a Latin inanity). Again, where's the quality? What is the jury doing? I'm sorry, but you guys just lost all credibility with me. Firstly, this is one of the most poorly designed websites I have come across.
