The “Bloggies”
If you want to nominate this blog for an “Irish Blog Award” go here and pick whichever categories you feel fit the bill. The rules state that you can nominate a blog for “Best Blog” and one other category.
I feel a bit weird about these awards, and had originally planned to take a see what happens style approach to “canvassing”. Then I thought about it some more and changed my mind. Firstly, because everyone else seems to be doing it! And secondly because last year the nominees got a certain amount of exposure and links in the Irish media. Realistically that’s one of the only ways for the music that is discussed here to poke its head into the mainstream, albeit indirectly, so that’s why I changed my mind and decided to post about the awards.
So do as you will, and if you read other Irish blogs then vote for them too. If you agree that the Irish media is deficient in numerous areas then take this opportunity to endorse the blogosphere instead. And tell your friends to vote too, whoever they favour.
Non Irish can vote too, that is, if you guys can stop enjoying your superior quality of life for 5 minutes.

Plus you know, the ether is still Irish. You could be even stricter and say my blog has nothing to do with Ireland and could be written by someone from any country in the world probably, but let’s ignore all of that!
