As I understand it there are quite a lot of Weblog Awards held and probably The Bloggies are one of the biggest. I'm not sure. Anyway, it is time for The 8th Annual Weblog Awards - the 2008 Bloggies. I don't really read a lot of blogs so I don't really care. However, I just had to vote for my favorite Bibi's Box which is nominated in the Best Latin American Weblog section.
