IndiBlogger of the Month - April 2009, select a category

IS there a category like "Blogs on Blogging"

How about ratings for Comics or Graphic Novels Category..... I don't find it anywhere, and it's a unique concept on its own.

Thanks Kushi for sharing your chosen categories, that too scheduled for the whole year. That was sweet. But i would still go for Blogs on social and environmental causes.

Reine, what do you think about keeping the voting open for all. Many of the readers can participate too. I know multi voting by an individual may also happen, but is there a solution to it? If so, this can be real good

May be it will be a good idea to have a widget on the main page where the available categories are given in a radio button list. People can then vote. This will solve the problem of having to discuss this topic every month.

The topic that gets the highest vote becomes the topic of the month.

If people would still like to discuss the issue, there could be a forum thread attached to the widget where this discussion could take place.

A bar chart could also be shown that depicts the voter preference.

Voting has started for March 2009!

Please take your time, go through all the entries and cast your vote.

Hi.. just wondering.. is the topic 'Politics and Current Affairs' about Indian Politics and current affairs in India or anywhere in the world?

It should be on Technical Textiles.

Frankly, I doubt this is going anywhere with each suggesting a different topic. How about doing a voting? Throw 5 topics out there, and each votes on what they prefer. A poll, complete with radio buttons et al? :-)

I think Business and Economy blogs should be the ones this time, especially because of recession.

@ Renie: That would be awesome!!! Blogs which are part of IndiBlogger should also get reader's choice awards. After all, not all readers are Bloggers.The best Blogger gets to adorn a Special Badge, but no prizes (sponsers). That would give it some real zeal.

The verification for multiple voting can be captured using the maker checker by email id.

Do you think we can do this? Is there any one who throw in their two cents for this?

Food and drinks!!

I have a suggestion! Nowadays many teens blog. So i feel that the topic should be teen bloggers or Blogging on teens. Or something related to us because we are the next gen and since we always have other things i thought this one out. Or we could have Creativity. Like who writes stories and poems the best!

I'd suggest anything other than politics, the quintessential embodiment of untruthfulness and disloyalty. I guess, you 'read my lips'. Sure, we must not run away from it; but recession, science and technology, or even SRK's frozen shoulder would be a better choice.

So, come on, 'lets make our day!'

Poetry will be a good topic!

Why not a blog category on typical Indian news?  I vote for category India News!

Would request all people who post here to have look at the suggestions already being posted and then give your valueable vote for category.

Blogs have emerged as, and are evolving into a critical tool for people like me who are in backwaters of India( based on infrastructure,both digital & physical) to put our message across to the world.

I am from Bihar & experience floods each year.We started a blog on flood relief in 2007(www.biharfloodrelief.blogspot.com) & are still working on flood relief for 2008 Kosi floods.

Our blog (www.biharfloodrelief2008.blogspot.com) was primarily started to share what we see in flood areas, what we are doing & what people willing to help can do to help the flood victims. The response was truly amazing...many people came to these parts to help in flood relief, some spread the word around & we got a lot of much needed relief material by corporates who wanted to help, but didn't know how.

Blogs like these make an immense difference to the people who suffer & people who want to help. Many a times, lives have been saved because of blogs on current effort & conditions in disaster areas.

In most of these blogs, you will find accurate data & transparency, & that's  to negate the apprehensions or doubts people have regarding the authenticity of claims made on blogs.

It would be be very helpful if blogs on social responsibility, selfless social or humanitarian efforts, natural disaster management are given more light, more visibility on forum such as yours.

More people will get involved in these initiatives if they know the facts about the magnitude & ground reality regarding any kind of humanitarian disaster.

cheers

Spirituality could be a good canditate too.

I feel environment and society should be given topmost importance at this juncture.  My blog category is 'News' with tags environment,society, people, sports, humor, etc.  Please calrify whether I will be eligible to contest in case environment and society is the topic next month.
