I am very grateful, so this is not a complaint, but two of my readers have already mentioned that "wonderland or not" and "durham in wonderland" are very close in name so could there be some kind of notation. Thanks much. Cooper

I didn't know something could get 131% of the vote, as Blogger did when I cast my vote. It's kind of cool in an impossible, non-mathematical way. It'll probably make for some interesting outcomes when the real voting begins. Are you sure the Ron Paulians aren't working on this?

How on earth do you have an entire category dedicated to pet blogs, but have completely ignored the fashion blogs? Do you have something against Jimmy Choo and Givenchy? Are you afraid you are going to misspell Louboutin? As Manolo pointed out, the thousands of fashion blogs out there have had a major impact on the industry. We do not like to be ignored in all of our Prada-clad fabulousity! www.CarriesShoeReview.com

I see that my blog Mr Furious has made the list as a "Best New Blog" finalist. I am honored, but believe there must be an error (did you mean Mrs. Furious?). If not, I need to graciously decline. I'm afraid my blog is NOT new, it's been around since June 2004. I heartily suggest replacing my spot with Mrs. Furious—which truly IS a new blog (this summer), and is already surpassing my own in readership and quality. I nominated "Mrs. Furious" in the "Best New Blog" category, and she is more than deserving. Of course, if you've actually judged my blog as good enough to be a finalist (shocking!), I belong in the "Individual" category, where I was originally nominated. Thanks! Mr Furious

Once again the Weblog Awards have ignored the fashion blogs. It is odd that while the mainstream media outlets such as the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Times of London, and dozens of other major publications have all recognized the growing power and influence of the fashion blogosphere, the Weblog Awards continue to pretend that it does not exist. The Manolo must protest this outrageous omission as being both short-sighted and neglectful of one of the areas in which blogs have had the most impact on the wider culture.

Great job by the judges on selecting the finalists. Very nice list of humor blogs! My vote goes for the humble Laurie Kendrick...who didn't beg her way onto the voting nor did she once come here and beg the judges to be a listed as finalist (slightly pathetic, no?). Laurie does a solid job day in and day out and I'm glad her hard work is being recognized! -Chris Whatpushesmybuttons.com
