Blogwatch: Mar. 14, 2005

The Bloggies are the Web’s answer to the Oscars, but this is one award show you can attend in boxers, not Bulgari. The fifth annual Weblog Awards, to be posted March 14 on BLOGGIES.COM, will name winners (chosen by reader votes) in 30 categories, ranging from Most Humorous to Best Designed. Among new categories this year: Best Food Blog and Best Entertainment Blog. And who will be the Web’s Million Dollar Baby? Favorites to nab the coveted Weblog of the Year award include BOINGBOING.NET and WONKETTE.COM. The winners won’t get a gold statuette or even a trip to the Vanity Fair party. Prizes will instead include $140.05 in cash and a DVD.
