1. Pam’s House Blend
2. Nah Right
3. Oliver Willis
4. Jack and Jill Politics
5. What About Our Daughters
6. The Field Negro
7. The Angry Black Woman

17. Prometheus 6
18. Booker Rising
19. Chimeric DayDreams
20. Black and Missing
Jack and Jill and Field Negroe fought it out in that round for bragging rights as the lead in the tally kept going back and forth between the two blogs. Jack and Jill edged out a cummulative score win.
It has no bearing on the next round though; just bragging rights.
The Evaluation Portion:
The personal evaluation of the blogs will determine the final listing. I wanted this contest to contain an aspect that very few do; judging quality on the same criteria for all. Here’s how it goes:
1. The veracity of the content of the blog; including use of multimedia
2. The creativeness and uniqueness of the perspective or twist on the information provided
3. How well written the content is
4. The diversity of content
5. The balance of informative versus entertainment or engagement value
6. The readability of the text area
7. The presentation via the layout
The Final list will be announced in about a week

Thanks Villager, and I much appreciate your help in making this happen.
This is a great and REAL list Yobachi! It’s about time there’s awards for real bloggers! Not to say that some bloggers aren’t real bloggers but ya know lol…I just like that it’s different than the other black awards
Deidra, I’m glad that the process resulted in the list of finalist being both diverse and substinative.
Yobachi - each and everyone of these blogs is deserving and are certainly reflective of the diversity among the Afrosphere. Can’t wait to see the final list!
