2011 Canadian Weblog Awards Nominations Are Open And New Buttons Are Hot Off The Presses

The Ninjamatics Canadian Weblog Awards never rest.

Hot on the heels of our HUGE announcement of our first ever 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards winners, the 2011 nominations are open for business. CWA nominations open early so that we can showcase our talent throughout the year, so please read our FAQ and nominate your favourite Canadian weblogs for this awards year. We will keep them on a running blogroll until the 2011 winners are announced on January 1, 2012.

We have decided to forgo any voting categories this year and have replaced the People's Choice category with Nature, so now there is room for weblogs pertaining specifically to plants and birds and rocks and things aside from Gardening.

Also, we have general 2011 Canadian Weblog Awards and nominee buttons for you! If you would like to spread the word of the CWAs or if you are a nominee, feel free to steal the button code provided and paste it into your weblog template or e-mails. Show off what Canada's got!

Here's to a new year at the Canadian Weblog Awards!

1st, 2nd, And 3rd Place Buttons For The Winners Of The 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards

Here are the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners's buttons for the 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards in preparation for the New Year's announcement.

The time draws nigh!

If you are a winner, simply copy the appropriate code beneath your category's buttons and paste it into your template or a weblog entry.

We Want Your Weblog Tool Reviews and How-Tos!

Hello! I took a short semi-vacation over this last week in order to concentrate more fully on certain projects, and I missed this place entirely too much. In fact, I had my fingers hovering over the keys here on Wednesday of last week, ready to dive in for a couple of hours, but I conjured up some self-discipline and stepped away from the laptop.

But now I'm back! And I have opportunity to offer you!

Aside from articles here at the Canadian Weblog Awards about site-specific business, interviews with nominees, and upcoming pieces about how to build a better weblog, I want you to share your knowledge about the blogging tools you use to create your weblogs.

Do you use Blogger, WordPress, Squarespace, or self-host your weblog? Where do you host your images? What photography tips do you have for the images you use in your weblog entries? What do you use to help you with the design elements of your weblog? What features do you like and which could use some changes? How do you use said tools in the service of your blogging?

Send all reviews and how-tos as an e-mail attachment to schmutzie [at] gmail [dot] com. All articles are subject to review and minimal grammatical/visual editing. If you are unsure of your idea or have any other questions, feel free to shoot me an e-mail so we can put our heads together.

These are our tools of the trade, so let's help each other get the most out of them. If you would like to write a 250 to 15000-word article about a weblog-related tool at the Canadian Weblog Awards, we would welcome your review and/or how-to. Have at it!

----------------------------------------

PS. The Canadian Weblog Awards has a new button!

<a href="http://www.canadianweblogawards.com" title="2010 Canadian Weblog Awards"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/schmutzie_pickles/buttons/2010cwa_wedoblogginggood.png" border="0" alt="2010 Canadian Weblog Awards" /></a>

Feel free to copy and paste the above code for use in your own weblog.

This button was originally created as an ad to promote the 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards at Life As A Human:

Life As A Human is a lifezine that explores, celebrates and discusses the weird, wonderful, challenging, funny and poignant experience of being human. We feature a diversity of inspired writing that creatively probes the status quo – and the fascinating nooks and crannies of our human experience.

Life As A Human is a Canada-based supporter of life writing, including my own, so check them out!

Buttons, Buttons, and More Buttons

There are now THIRTY-SEVEN buttons for your weblog to show off the Canadian Weblog Awards and/or your status as a nominee.

There are general Canadian Weblog Awards buttons, general nominee buttons, and now nominee buttons to show off the specific categories for which you've been nominated. All you need to do is copy and paste the code for your chosen buttons into your weblog template or into a weblog entry.

Cheers!
