Who I Voted For


Though it slipped my mind to vote between the first day and today, this is who I voted for today:
Best Designed Blog: Beyond Tshuva.

Best Life in Israel Blog: JoeSettler (I voted for IfYouWillIt the first time).

Best Jewish Religion Blog: Maven Yavin (underdog vote) - though I didn't realize that Godol Hador was so far down. I think I voted for GH, though maybe Gil, the first time.

Best Series: Aaron's Story, Elie's Expositions.

Best Post: 9/11, Orthomom.

Best Overall: DovBear (last time, Hirhurim).

Best Jewish Culture: Orthomom.

Best Jewish Humor: PsychoToddler. Robbie would have gotten votes, but I forgot to. Ah well. Plus, he has plenty.

Best Israel Advocacy: The Muqata.

Best Politics: DovBear. (oof)

Best Personal Blog: Mirty's Place.

Best New Blog 2005: Orthomom.

Best "Mega" Blog: LGF.

Best Podcast: (Random click, as I have never listened to a Podcast...) The View From Here.

Best Student Life Blog: Fudge.

Best Group Blog: Beyond Tshuva (last time Maven Yavin, I think).

Best of the Rest: Jack's Shack. Duh.
Go Vote!!

  1. I'd just like to point out that for Best New, I'm in a deat heat.

    If I lose, I'm blaming you.

  2. LOL!!

    Sorry, OM is awesome. Too bad those from so long ago are included in "Best New"... I should note that I missed making the Finals in Best New by a couple of votes, so consider this revenge! :P

  3. Wait a second ... if you voted for neither CC nor H in best religion, how are we supposed to evaluate whether you're krum?

  4. Uch, I hate DovBear's blog. I stopped reading it last year. I though s/he was rude and crass to people with different points of view. It's not a very open-minded blog. I don't understand how it won.

    Jameel's my man. We're very tight. We have a love/hate relationship. I'm glad he won. We don't agree on a lot, but we have a mutual respect for eachother.

    I'm excited to check out some of these blogs I've never heard about. Thanks for posting the winners!

  7. OM - Heh, true. Hey - at least you made it to the finals; I got knocked out in all 5 categories in the first round... (7th or 8th in most, too - what a tease!)

  11. Yosef, Mark, DovBear: You're welcome. (I assume DB that you meant the oof part)

  12. Thanks Ezzie. I could never compete with an uber-blog like Robbie anyway.

  13. Thanks for the votes, Ezzie. Next time, though, open 20 browsers and refresh before voting, thanks.

  14. Oh, OK. Got it. Yeah, I have voted already. We voted for some of the same people, but I'm not saying. It's my god given right not to tell you who I voted for. Hahaha. I love that. People in Israel don't understand, at all, the American thing of not saying who you voted for. When I told my husband I wouldn't tell him who I voted for in the March elections, he looked at me really weird. It's priceless.

  15. OC - LOL - though I'm of an Israeli mentality, and have no problem doing so most of the time.

  16. I just noticed that PT called mine an "uber-blog."

    That's kinda cool.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Yeah. Thanks for nothing...
    *sniff*

    Kidding. You've been very supportive of the entire process and you've even helped me expand my knowledge of the JBlogosphere - that's WAAAY more important than who wins or loses.

  18. Robbie - It's okay, he was being sarcastic. :P

    CK - Heh - you guys are great, but I only just discovered you! And thanks to y'all, I found a bunch more as well. Thanks.
