Our nomination - pitting us against Big Dumb Object, the Doctor Who News Page and SF Crowsnest (all stiff competition!) is part of the first ever SFX Blog Awards, where the top-selling SF magazine celebrates the best that SF and fantasy fan-driven and insider-developed internet activity has to offer.
"These awards aren’t for big, profit-making sites but for sites that were created for the love of the genre, and are maintained by people out of love rather than money," the magazine's team say.
"They’re called Blog Awards, and while we do have many trad blogs among the nominations, but we’ve applied the term loosely to include a couple of less bloggy sites that still feel in the right spirit. Consider 'Blog' a shorthand term, because 'The SFX Fan-Driven And Insider-Developed Website Awards' just ain’t catchy enough."
There are six categories to choose from, and the nominations, who also include our good friends Geek Syndicate in the 'Best Podcast' category and British comic creators Paul Cornell, Neil Gaiman and Warren Ellis in the 'Best Celebrity Blog' category, have been drawn up from suggestions made by members of the SFX Forum, SFX team members and the SFX Bloggers.
All you have to do now is browse through the various nominees and decide which ones you want to vote for. Voters will be, to all intents and purposes, the Blog Academy, deciding the winners.
