Netimperative has announced its nominees for the inaugral Imperative awards... and guess what?
Not only has your favourite technology weblog - that's us, by the way - been shortlisted in the "best digital media weblog" category, (vote for us here) but Online has a few other mentions.
First up is a nomination for lifetime achievement for the inimitable Jack Schofield - who I'm sure you all know - and has been doing his computer-related thing at the Guardian for quite some time. NI points out he's a "long-standing journalist for the Online section of the Guardian, the only remaining national newspaper supplement dedicated to the digital world".
I'm sure that's likely to generate some debate... what do you reckon, Jack?
Online also has its fingers firmly in the "Wildcard" category's pie. Victor Keegan, the editor of Online (and occasional Onlineblog contributor), has merited attention for his weblog dedicated to campaigning against agricultural subsidies, KickAAS, which Netimperative says is "quite possibly the first time the new medium of weblogs has been used for such an ambitious (non party) political end."
And up against him is erstwhile Online contributor and gadget fiend Ashley Norris, whose Shiny Media has garnered for championing nanopublishing, as what NI says is "perhaps the first proper UK blog publisher".
So, go vote. Oh, and there are some other categories too -
