I got a very interesting email yesterday from Izea, announcing the winners of their Bloggers Choice Awards for 2008.
The usual sites were in the mix with the best Geek blog being taken out by BoingBoing yet again.
I think that these blog awards are so predictable and mundain, as they dont really prove anything or even give awards for that matter.
The surprising result was that Perez Hilton got the worst blog
of all time award. Don’t get me wrong PerezHilton doesn’t have the best blog in the world, but what he has built around it is amazing. That blog has built up and entire empire for him and he has to be one of the most visible bloggers in the world, probably leading the way for many other bloggers to take the jump into mass media. PerezHilton.com is definitely not the worst blog of all time!
Popular blog BoingBoing is launching its own web-based daily tv show. Much like the blog, BoingBoingTV will focus on odd bits from around the Web, but in daily 3-5 minute video segments, five days a week.
The show will be hosted by Xeni Jardin and BoingBoing co-creator Mark Frauenfelder, while other BoingBoing contributors will also host segments.
BoingBoing has inked a three month sponsorship deal with IBM to kick-off the show. You can see the first episode below.
