Eyes and Ears

The somewhat thankless task of running the blog review has become ever more increasingly frustrating as blogs disappear or remain static. I am counting on those active bloggers among us to be my eyes and ears. So if there are any new, or as yet unnoticed welsh political blogs not covered please let me know in the comments section or by email at welshblogindex@hotmail.co.uk

Also please use the same form of contact for the Welsh Blog Index Awards. A number of bloggers have already given their nominations and time is fast running out with only around a week to go.

Many thanks

Blog Roll and Awards

As stated in the blog of the week section we have lost fellow bloggers Amanwy and Seneddwr. The blog roll is getting smaller so please let me know of any political blogs in the Welsh blogsphere not currently being covered. Either email me at Welshblogindex@hotmail.co.uk or leave a note in the comments section.

Also don’t forget to get your nominations for the WelshBlogIndex blog awards.

Many thanks

Updated Blog Roll and Awards

I have added some new blogs to the blog roll. Remember is there is any blogs not listed that you would like to draw to my attention please email me at welshblogindex@hotmail.co.uk



Also remember to get your nominations for the Blog Awards in to the same email address and not the one noted in the origional post.

Welsh Blog Index Awards Correct Email Address

I made a rather big error previously with this and gave the wrong email address to send your nominations to! If you have already nominated to the welshblogawards email I accidentally posted they will not have been seen and you will have to do so again at the correct email address which is welshblogindex@hotmail.co.uk

Because of this error on my behalf I shall be extending nominations until the second Monday in August.
