This past August, I shared the exciting news with my readers that my site was the recipient of three nominations for the 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards. For those who are not familiar with this competition, the Canadian Weblog Awards (CWA) is a juried competition that looks for the best Canadian bloggers in a diverse range of categories and styles. Yesterday, I received news that my site has been selected as one of the top 5 finalists in the following two categories:
- Business and Career
- Best Designed
According to the CWA site, there were over 450 nominated sites for the various categories which were reviewed and scored by 49 jurors, leading to the top 5 finalists for each category. These top 5 finalists will now go through a second jury round over the month of December, after which they will announce the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners on January 1st, 2011.
Considering the number of nominated sites, it’s truly an honour to be held up as one of the top 5 blogs representing the best from my country in these respective categories. I’d like to extend my congratulations to the other finalists in this year’s Canadian Weblog Awards, along with my thanks to the jury for selecting my site as one of the top 5 finalists in not one, but two categories.
Congratulations Tanveer – Well deserved Sir.
