Just go to www.thebobs.com until Nov. 15 to help determine the winner of the people's choice award in each of the 15 different prize categories.

 

Our international jury of bloggers, media professionals and journalists will meet in November to pick the very best of the blogs.

In cooperation with Reporters Without Borders, Deutsche Welle will once again present a special award to a weblog that takes a strong stance on freedom of information.

 

All the winners will be announced at a public awards ceremony on Nov. 15 at the Museum for Communication in Berlin. Entrance is free.
