Nominate Best New Weblog

by Root

Nominate your favorite new European blog(s) here. First post must be in 2004.

Rules:

You can nominate as many blogs as you like. Please don’t be shy about nominating your own blog.

Nominations should preferably be in the form of comments or trackbacks to the relevant post.

Only European blogs are elegible. By that we mean that the blog should be written by Europeans, or else focus on some European issue. (Czech, Catalan…)

This weblog is not eligible for any awards, but our contributors’ other blogs are.

The nominating phase will go on for several weeks. The finalists will be determined by the number of nominations and our discretion.

The master post for the awards is here.

    Non Tibi Spiro

    Europhobia
    Reflections on European Democracy

  2. David Weman Says:

    Oh, and North Sea Diaries, though he seems to be kind of a rightwing nutcase. But he never writes anything really wingnutty, so there you are.

  3. David Weman Says:

    North Sea Diaries

  4. thomas Says:

    I would like to nominate the blog that is perhaps Norway’s most famous one: dr. Toril Mortensens blog @ http://torillsin.blogspot.com

  5. frenchboy Says:

    I’d like to nominate a fresh french weblog about the european constitution : publius. Collective weblog of some bloggers that could perform in the best french weblog contest.

  6. Nosemonkey Says:

    Oooh! Ta for the nomination. But sadly I don’t think I technically qualify - although I’ve only started blogging properly during the last few months, I actually made my first post back in March 2003… Then promptly forgot all about it.

    I’d add to the list:
    The Road to Euro Serfdom - anti-EU, but (usually) in a thoughtful manner
    Lose the Delusion - only been going a month, but looking very promising thus far

  7. David Weman Says:

    Thomas, considering that she’s been blogging since 2001(!), I think you meant to post in another category.

  8. Alex Says:

    I think Scott Clark of http://foreignnotes.blogspot.com should be considered.

  9. Eric Gordy Says:

    Certainly new, and mostly European — my blog (is it too gauche to nominate my own?) is on Balkan and US politics and culture and other things that come to mind. It might be interesting for the Eastern-minded.

    East Ethnia

    No awards really expected, I’ll be taking some time to read the other nominees here. But I’ll be flattered if anyone takes a peek.

  10. Ken Says:

    I’m posting more in the spirit of self-promotion rather than actually expecting to win anything, but my blog “Militant Moderate” was new in 2004. Go and take a look! http://kenowen.blogspot.com

  11. john b Says:

    Michael Brooke seconded.

  12. Max Says:

    I would recommend this new blog:

    http://saintlunaire.canalblog.com/

    Wonderful pics, smart and funny notes. A blend of philosophy and poetry. A definite winner !

  13. Tim Worstall Says:

    I?m not shy.
    http://www.timworstall.com
    Highly right wing and wingnutty, started in 2004.

  14. quod scripsi, scripsi Says:

    I vote for East Ethnia!

  15. jamie Says:

    How about “Lose the Delusion”. A smooth operator indeed.

  28. James Says:

    Short, but well written. A new blog - very refreshing for a Bulgarian.

  29. Scott MacMillan Says:

    I think http://www.pestiside.hu should go under “best new weblog” because it’s not just new, it’s new and different.

  30. george Says:

    “Songs and circumstances”: it’s a blog about music and the process of songwriting and recording. I haven’t seen many blogs about music so here’s the adress : songsandcircumstances.blogspot.com
