Edublog Awards: results

by Lilia Efimova on December 13, 2004

Edublog Awards voting is finished:

Well, what can I say, a great bunch of people sharing a great bunch of blogs, thanks to all who came along & voted!

Basically, congratulations to everyone who was nominated. As I’ve gone on about ad infinitum the idea of how ‘results’ might work has been troubling me a fair bit and I’m really keen to avoid ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ (because really, these and the many great blogs that weren’t nominated (probably due to lack of credible-blog-clout…) are all very much winners) and in that thinking we kinda decided to scrap the ‘editorial’ aspect and just let the votes decide.

And the winners are:

  • Best Individual BlogPharyngula
  • Best overall group blogCrooked Timber
  • Best resource sharing blogOLDaily
  • Best Research Based BlogMathemagenic
  • Best blogged paper(s)Bridging the Gap: A Genre Analysis of Weblogs
  • Best designed & most beautiful blogBlaugustine
  • Best technology meets pedagogy blogTeaching & Developing Online
  • Best use of weblogs within teaching and learningBee-coming a Webhead
  • Best Newcomer (2004) Chasing the Dragon’s Tale
  • Best Librarian BlogLibrary Stuff
  • After a weekend offline it was fun to discover that my weblog won in the Best Research Based Blog category. Thanks for those who voted, but also for everyone who is there – inspiring, reading, commenting – because without you blogging research wouldn’t be that exiting and that rewarding. And especial thanks to company, Telematica Instituut, for taking risks of someone blogging about work and my colleagues for a good company.

    And, next to a good personal feeling, I really hope that events like Edublog Awards will help to make research blogging a legitimate activity for a researcher and not a strange and even dangerous hobby :)
