The 2010 Canadian Weblog Awards

The Canadian Weblog Awards are a juried competition intended to promote good weblogs of all genres from across Canada year round through regular interviews, articles, and the nomination, judging, and award process that culminates with the announcement of the top three weblogs in each category on January 1st.

They are managed by Schmutzie of Schmutzie.com who tirelessly blogs about and coordinates these awards throughout the year.

In 2010, Life As A Human was selected by the Canadian Weblog Awards as first place winners in the Group Weblog category and third place winners for Best New weblog.

We congratulate all of the other winners and encourage you to visit and support their fine websites!
