Manchester Blog Awards

It's the Manchester Blog Awards on Monday. No doubt there'll be many tearful acceptance speeches and I know Robin's particularly looking forward to leading the big dance number they have planned for the intermission*. We'll hear from him on Pods and Blogs, but I hope you'll take the time to look at some of the blogs listed on the BBC Manchester Blog. which is, in itself an innovative project that I think is an excellent model of collaborative journalism; certainly plenty of other people seem pretty interested in it (see here and here for example)

*This may not in fact be true.
