Nominations for the 2008 Catholic Blog Awards will open this year at 12:00 Noon CST on Friday, February 15, 2008 and close on Friday, February 29, 2008 at 12:00 Noon CST. Voting will begin on Monday, March 3, 2008 at 12:00 Noon CST and end on Monday, March 17, 2008 at Noon.

To quote Adoro:

And I have to second what Cathy suggested - let's give some more attention to the smaller blogs. Each year the "big" blogs like "Closed Cafeteria" and professional Catholic apologists' blogs get huge nominations and massive votes. What about the average blogger in the pews here at St. Blogs? I can think of several bloggers who deserve these awards. So let's motivate to make some changes, and focus our spotlights on the people who do a great job in their humble ways.

And in all honesty, I get a LOT more spiritual benefit, and often, true solid knowledge from the everyday Catholic blog, than I do from the big ones that steal the awards every year. So everyone, think about the blogs you love to read, and get ready to nominate them! I know of a few I can't wait to nominate!
