THE JIBS: The purpose of the JIBS is to increase the exposure and awareness of the J-blogosphere and its members through a friendly competition. This year, the JIBs are being hosted at http://jibawards.com. The nomination process has begun and will last until April 19th. Anyone may nominate any blog--following the guidelines for nomination (Name, URL, and e-mail of owner if known and available). To make it easier to navigate, the categories are split into four sections:

• Best All-Around (Mega-blogs, large blogs, small blogs, etc.)
• Best Posts (Overall Post, Humor Post, Series, Podcast, etc)
• Best in Class - (Slice of Life in Israel, Skeptic, Student Life, Photoblog, etc.)
• Best Specialty (Design, Podcast/Audioblog/Videoblog, Contribution [Blog that made a difference], and Best of the Rest)

Let the voting begin.
