I was voting faithfully everyday for two of my favorite blogs: The Bloggess (in the humour category) and Pharyngula (in science). Jenny lost to some comic posting hack and PZ lost to global warming deniers.

I went and checked out some of the winners just now and it was all terrible, terrible shit with one exception. The best religion blog was that of some snarky RC priest that had commenters saying things like seminarians that are homosexual should be banned completely (don’t even get me started there). The parenting blog was useless dreck from a religiot with quads. The education winner was total Mr. Principal’s Office NEA-speak.

*BUT*
best lit blog was one of my favorite author’s: Neil Gaiman. And I saw that he has a Twitter account which I promptly glommed onto and began following like a bleating sheep. So…all is not lost.

Overall, I’m left feeling like there was a giant media conspiracy to suppress the real blog reformers. :P
