Nominate your choice for Best LGBT Blog. LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered.
UPDATE: NOMINATIONS ARE CLOSED FOR ALL CATEGORIES. FINALIST WILL BE ANNOUNCED DEC. 29. VOTING BEGINS JAN. 5.
To nominate a blog you need to leave a comment on this entry. Your comment should contain the name of the blog, the main URL for the blog, and (if possible) the URL for a RSS/Atom feed. For example:
Wizbang
http://wizbangblog.com/
http://feeds.wizbangblog.com/Wizbang
Unless you login via one of the supported authentication services (Typekey, WordPress, OpenID, Yahoo, AIM, etc.) your comment will not be published immediately. Unauthenticated comments are placed in a moderation queue. Due to the volume of comments, it may take up to 24 hours for your comment to be approved. Comments from authenticated users will be published immediately.
Every so often our spam fighting service flags an authenticated comment as spam. If put more than 10 URL's in a comment it will set off the junk filter. If your comment doesn't immediately appear that's probably what happened. We review and "unjunk" these comments as we are approving unauthenticated comments. We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Rules And FAQ's- You can nominate yourself, don't be shy.
- The number of nominations a blog receives is irrelevant. One nomination is enough...
- Rather than add a "me too" nomination for a site you're encouraged to use the "+" icon to indicate your preference for nominees. The "+" ratings are one extra piece of information the finalist selection panel can use to help generate the finalist slates in each category.
- Given the two previous items, we reserve the right to remove excessive comments (i.e. nominations) for the same site.
The nomination period is scheduled to end on Wednesday, November 19, 2008.- The nomination period has been extended to Friday, November 21, 2008.
- Voting for selected finalists is scheduled to begin December 8, 2008. Finalists will be announced several days before voting begins.
- Read The Nomination FAQ
- Get Weblog Award logos to post on your site. Link to the nomination index or your favored category
- Get technical help or ask questions at The Weblog Awards Forum
- If you are linking to the contest consider using the nomination category archive, as it contains links to all of the nomination posts.

I'd like to nominate www.gaypolitics.com -- a blog that covers the accomplishments of openly LGBT politicans.
Here are some good trans blogs. I hope that the "T" in "LGBT" isn't silent here.
TransAdvocate - http://www.transadvocate.com

I'd like to nominate Meta Watershed, a lesbian-run blog which is written by one of the new staff writers at Group News Blog. Covers the gamut from lesbian-feminism to anti-racism, anti-classism, pop culture, art, an online lesbian novel, as well as radical political analysis.

http://thecompletebear.com//blog-mt/atom.xml
http://www.towleroad.com
There is only one lgbt blog and it's Towleroad. Even the blogs that don't like it compare (and are just not as hung). And the frantic little one from iowa can't stop dragging it down out of envy.
Why Towleroad? Because Andy's in it every day and beats the Advocate and all the little blogs that stacked together even don't cover it or have the readers. Don't hate because he gets readers. We all wish we had them. but he does. There is a reason he gets the readers. He can think. He can write. He can entertain.
And his politics make him the obama of the bloggers. white black gay straight men women all would be welcome, though it's not made for all.. No patronizing and no snob snark. None of the bitter blog bunch. He respects the audience and doesnt slag them if they dont' read. He doens't consider anyone dumb because he's not in the beltway, in the know or been to college.
i learn a lot. you will too.
hate the hating ones.

This is a terrific blog for LGBT-positive, political news and activism.
No advertising and real citizen journalism.
https://fromtheleft.wordpress.com/
I would like to nominate FROM THE LEFT.
http://fromtheleft.wordpress.com/
http://fromtheleft.wordpress.com/
One of the best LGBT/political blogs for anyone of ANY orientation. Good luck, Christopher!
I'm straight but not narrow. I've learned a lot about gay issues from reading Christopher's writing at From the Left.
He deserves props!

This Girl Called Automatic Win
and
Auto-Straddle: the best homo-sexy TV recapping ever. Seriously. Her L Word recaps are hilarious.
RIESE @ this girl called automatic win
http://marielynbernard.blogspot.com
I nominate http://www.Tina-cious.com it's personal, sometimes painful, funny, and always real.
I am pleased to nominate From the Left in the LGBT category.
I've learned so much about what it means to be gay and lesbian in this country as a result of reading Christopher's work.
While his focus is political, he's so fearless and ad hoc. Really well done.
https://fromtheleft.wordpress.com/
I'm nominating us at http://www.grrlplanet.com because I think that we represent women of all sorts, all the time with a lesbian perspective (or at least our lesbian perspective - there are many). Whether older, disabled, of whatever race, whatever religion (muslim olympic sisters), we attempt to represent you....and usually we post five days a week with multiple posts. Which, let's be honest, is sometimes a lot of work.
We think we do well in our genre, and we hope that you agree...
for new gay blog, this blogger has a refreshing outlook on our community.
http://feeds.feedburner.com/Sick-n-Tired
http://sickntired08.blogspot.com
I respectfully nominate the blog of Sam Page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Jensen_Page)
PEACE. LOVE. LUNGES.
http://www.PeaceLoveLunges.com
Sam is an ex-Mormon, "reformed" gay pornstar, founder of HERO Magazine, and a fitness trainer in Hollywood.
I discovered the blog after seeing his interview with Kathy Griffin on "My Life on the D List" in June, and aside from being hot as hell, I think he's an outstanding 'out' journalist doing some really interesting work.
If I were a gay man...I'd be this peeved too..
I would like to nominate Wicked Gay Blog for this category.

Funny, smart, clever, and pulling through with the poignant pure poetry when you need it most. She changes people's lives for real, and Haviland & Riese's vlogs are the best thing on youtube.
