It really would be worth taking some time to explore the nominated blogs, wikis, tweeps, nings and educators nominated for Eddies this year. I intend to look at all of them during the holidays and reorganise my Google Reader to reflect my current interests.

After reading Miguel Guhlin’s post it got me thinking about what is the point (or what is best) about the Edublog Awards. Here, in one great long list, is a huge collection of the resources and learning professionals that someone cares enough about to nominate.

Take your time…there’s countless hours of care and love invested in these sites from teachers and educators around the globe who are going the extra mile. Enjoy this incredible collection of resources and share with your colleagues who are just making a start online!
