Weblog Award Endorsements
Weblog Awards Voting is in progress until December 15th. I've been voting, but at the request Letters From The Bostonian Exile, I'm going to make some endorsements. Not that I think it's going to make a difference, but here they are.
Best Blog: Captain's Quarters
Best New Blog: It's really hard to make this call, but since I have to go with one, it's Respectful Insolence winning a photo finish with Decision '08
Best Group Blog: The Moderate Voice
Best Humor: Another hard call. Scrappleface edges out Day by Day.
Best Conservative Blog: I've been voting for Jawa Report.
Best Media: I love Lileks, but nobody has done anything like Michael Yon. Please go vote for him.
Best Culture and Gossip: I've been voting for Lllama Butchers to help a fellow RINO.
Best LGBT: I've been voting for Gay Orbit because he's a RINO.
Best Milblog: Several strong contenders, but I have to go with Argghhh!
Law Blog: Professor Bainbridge is a very strong contender, but in all fairness, the nod has to go to Volokh Conspiracy.
Best Business Blog: Seems to actually be more of an Economics category by the nominees, but I'm going with Asymmetrical Information.
Best Canadian: Angry in the Great White North.
Best Middle East: Iraq the Model
Best Australian: Tim Blair
Best Caribbean: Babalu
Top 250: Dean's World
251-500: Ex-Donkey is a fellow RINO
501-1000: Armies of Liberation
1001-1750: I gotta go with Coyote
1751-2500: Forward Biased
2501-3500: World According to Nick
3501-5000: Evolution (Sorry, Bostonian Exile.)
Favorite Blogging software: Powerblogs (not listed, which is a severe oversight. Christopher Lansdown has a wonderful system with pretty much every feature you could want. When I was looking back in June, I did a survey of all the providers and nothing else came close. Dean's World, Volokh Conspiracy, and Moderate Voice, among others, also use it)
(Folks, my whole family is down with nasty colds, and that includes the baby. I'm better off than my wife because my allergy medication lessens some of the symptoms, but I'm not feeling good myself. I'm going to try to finish an article for tomorrow morning, but other than that I'm out for the day)

- Day by Day It is site policy to list the main page of every site I reference. Sometimes the real world intervenes and I haven't gotten to it yet, or one falls through the cracks on a long post with multiple references. It is also site policy to list the main page of every site that lists this one on their equivalent roll, as well as the main page of all sites that are members of any of the same groups this site is a member of. Please send me an email with a link to the main page of your site if I've overlooked you (dm at the domain name). For the clue-challenged, note that it is a requirement for your link to appear on every page of your site, just like mine does, and I will not link to spam sites.

Logical failures (straw man, ad hominem, red herring, etcetera) will be pointed out - and I hope you'll point out any such errors I make as well. If there's something you don't understand, ask.
Nonetheless, the idea of comments should be constructive. Aim them at the issue, not the individual. Consider it a challenge to make your criticism constructive. Try to be respectful. Those who make a habit of trollish behavior will be banned.
