Well I was quite surprised to find a few incoming links to my blog today from ComputerWeekly.com. It turns out my name has been mentioned as a potential candidate for their IT Blog Awards 08. I’m honoured (and surprised). I’ve no idea who suggested me or if Rebecca read my blog but nice to be even mentioned in this category.
If I make the list I’ll be sure to point you over there but with other great blogs like Andrew Fryer's or Tim Anderson’s ITWriting it’s not a given. Plus there are plenty of other great blogs out there that I look up to – just check my blogroll for examples.
Steve,
I seconded the nomination today.
Although I don't really think your blog sits in Development and Programming, it is probably light reading for many that sit in that category.
In addition, it seems to be the no.1 source for information on the whole s+s strategy and what tangible new stuff has arrived, without too much spin.
It's a good mix of decent usable content and personal anecdotes that is not grating.
Some blogs are too dry and overly analytical, some too matey and talking about their personal life ad nauseam.
Yours strikes a good balance, and has ensured that it hasn't been booted out of my Outlook RSS feeds. These are prime real estate in my work environment.
Gareth
thanks Gareth - very kind works and I appreciate the seconding!
hope to stay in your Outlook feeds for some time!
cheers
Steve
