Meet the IB-06 Jury

Dear readers, we are delighted to introduce to you the Jury for Indiblogies 2006. It’s been our endeavour to bring new faces each year to this distinguished panel and we welcome them all. Apart from the fact they they would be devoting their time to tiresome effort of looking at the nominated blogs and nominating them, they have chosen to stay away from the competition adding the glaze of credibility to Indibloggies and I am thankful to them. I hope their stint at Indibloggies gives them an opportunity to highlight unsung blogs and helps them gain a bird’s eye view of the growing Indiblogdom.

Indibloggies 2005 ~ Meet the Jury

For those of you who still do not believe that the ball has been set rolling for the Indibloggies 2005 edition here is more proof. Indibloggies 2005 proudly presents the Jury for the event, comprising of fellow Indibloggers, a who’s who of the Indiblogdom if you will, most of whom could be regarded as true connoisseurs of blogging. Many of the jurors are second timers at Indibloggies but most of them are new, as we have an unprecedented 28 members Jury this year, with Jurors who would also monitor the Indic blogs. All in all, a qualified panel geared to steer the event with grace, honesty and vigour.

I thank all the jurors for devoting their time and effort to this event and hope that we would be able to highlight the very best of the blogosphere and attract attention towards scores and scores of blogs that escape our sight. Here is an alphabetical listing of the Jury.

A Note for Bloggers: If you think you blog deserves a nomination to Indibloggies 2004, you may write to any of the Jury member directly (please do not flood multiple Jury members with your requests) requesting a dekko along with with your Name, Blog Name and URL and the category you want the blog to be nominated for. You would agree, however, that the final decision on whether your blog would be nominated or not rests with the Jury member, given the limitation on the number of blogs s/he can nominate for any category.

Note for the Jury members: You are expected to:

  1. Send us your consent to be a Jury (and for publishing your name and email ID on this blog) on or before 30 November, 2004. We would be publishing name of the Jury members in this post with their email IDs.
  2. Select atleast 5 categories to nominate blogs for (those who are well versed with any Indian language apart from English would do good to select a language category). Remember that you may nominate blogs for all the categories but no less than 5 categories.
  3. Nominate a maximum of 3 blogs per category (order not important) on or before 2031 December, 2004. Nominations must include a short justification on why you nominated the blog. The last date is absolutely important and we regret that we would not accept any nominations received after 2031 December, 2004.

Jury members would find the sites related to the Indiblogs very helpful if they just want to skim through many of them. Make sure to take a look at the “Links” menu at this blog for links to such websites/blogs.
