Keep the Brand/Blogger Relationship Transparent. Updated With Links: Announcing the 2010 BlogHer Voices of the Year! Today we are pleased and proud to announce the 2010 BlogHer Voices of the Year!
This year we expanded the Community Keynote concept that we started in 2008 (thanks to Eden Kennedy's brainstorm and ongoing curation) to allow us to shine a spotlight on even more great work. As we announced in March, that means that below you will find 90 finalists across five categories, including three finalists per category who will also present their work as part of the 2010 Community Keynote on Friday August 6th. That same evening the Voices of the Year Gala will include an art auction, curated by kirtsy, featuring custom-commissioned artwork that evokes the spirit of these 90 Finalists. This year we received nearly 1,000 submissions, so I must start by thanking our Voices of the Year Committee who helped us arrive at the 90 amazing pieces you'll see below, and hear a sampling of at the Community Keynote: Phase 1 "Pay It Forward" Judging Committee (all former Community Keynoters): Thanks to you all!
