Introducing the Nunies

http://kiggavik.typepad.com/nunavut_blogs

In celebration of Blogging in Nunavut I'm introducing the Nunies in
conjunction with The House and other Arctic musings. The Nunies are a
simple recognition of the best that blogging in Nunavut has to offer.
Here is how it works...

From now until January 21st, 2008 there will be the opportunity to
nominate blogs in two categories:
1) Best Nunavut Blog
2) Best New Nunavut Blog (the blog must have started in 2007)

and a third category for...
3) Best post of 2007

To nominate blogs for the first two categories send an email to the
Nunavut Blogs! email address nunavutblogs AT yahoo DOT ca. You can
nominate up to five blogs but you can only make one submission. Oh yeah,
The House and other Arctic musings, is ineligible to be nominated... my
award, my rules.

To nominate the best post of 2007 send a link to the post to the same
email address. To be eligible for the two blog categories the blog must
be primarily about Nunavut, written by someone living in Nunavut, or
written by an expatriot Nunavumiut now living elsewhere. The post can have
the additional criteria of being a post about Nunavut, not necessarily by
a blog falling into one of those other categories.

After January 21st the top five nominees will be posted and voting will
open for a week, with the Winners being announced in the beginning of
February. What do the winners get??? Not much really, a nifty badge to
post on their blog (that I've yet to design), a little promotion of their
blog, and dinner for two at the House, should they ever make it up this
way. If anyone else wants to donate a prize you can let me know.

Please spread the word, so as many people as possible take part in the
nominations/voting.
