Nominations are now open for the following categories:
To nominate a blog for a particular category, click on the relevant category link. You will be taken to a post with instructions. In most cases, you will need to leave the blog name and hyperlinked URL in the comments to the relevant category post. Failure to adhere to the correct format will result in the nomination being ignored.
Rules
1. You can nominate a blog in more than one category. However, you should only nominate a blog in a category if it is appropriate. For example, please do not nominate a very new blog for Best Overall.
2. A blog should only be nominated once in a category. So before nominating a blog, conduct a quick “find” to determine whether or not it has already been nominated.
3. A blog nomination will be deemed invalid if:
– Either Aussie Dave or the Jerusalem Post staff determine that it does not truly belong to its nominated category.
– The blog nomination is not made in the required form pursuant to rule 6 below.
4. A blog is ineligible for being nominated if, although it is written by a Jewish blogger, the content of the blog is virulently anti-Israel, or even anti-Semitic. The test is “Is this [blog] considered anti-Israel/anti-Semitic by the layperson, regardless of his/her political orientation?”
The above does not include blogs which contain earnest discussion about the merits of certain Israeli policies.
The above does not include blogs which contain earnest discussion about the merits of certain Israeli policies.
5. Israellycool and the Israellycool Podcast are ineligible for being nominated.
6. A blog nomination must be in the required form:
– Blog name (or name of best post/best series)
– Hyperlinked URL
Example:
Israellycool
Israellycool
7. If your blog is nominated but you do not want it to be in the voting, please send me an email (israellycool-[at]-yahoo-[dot]-com) with your blog name, URL, and a clear statement that you do not wish to be nominated. Otherwise, all nominated blogs will be considered potential entrants.
8. While we endeavor to include all nominated blogs in the voting rounds, this is not possible due to resource constraints. Therefore, only 40 nominated blogs per category will progress to the preliminary voting round. If a category contains in excess of 40 valid nominations, the Jerusalem Post and Israellycool retain the right to determine which blogs progress.
9. Nominations close at 9:00pm (Israel time) Sunday, December 18th.
