In the News: Roll out the Red Carpet for the Bloggies
Now that the holidays are over we are moving onto our next season – Awards Season! We have the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild Awards, the Oscars, and of course The 2010 Bloggies. What are the Bloggies you ask? They are publicly chosen awards given to weblog writers across 30 categories.
As we have a difficult time categorizing ourselves (we’re more than just a travel site, not just a career site) we found a perfect category for us in the Bloggies: The “Best-Kept Secret” weblog! After all, most Americans don’t even know the term career break yet, but they should.
So in a bit of self-promotion in helping to spread the word on Briefcase to Backpack, we ask that you nominate us. And given that you have to nominate at least three weblogs, we’ll help you out with some other suggestions.
Our nominees are:
- Best-Kept Secret Weblog – Briefcase to Backpack http://briefcasetobackpack.com
- Best Latin American Weblog – Medellin Living http://medellinliving.com
- Best Travel Weblog – OttsWorld http://ottsworld.com
- Best Group Weblog – Lost Girls World http://lostgirlsworld.blogspot.com
- Best New Weblog – Amy’s Real Life http://amysreallife.wordpress.com
Nominations close January 12, 2010.
Tell us who you would recommend! We haven’t placed our votes yet!
