PBA 2008: The Voices Get My Vote

September 16th, 2008  |  Published in Blogging  |  3 Comments

The 2008 Philippine Blog Awards season is in full swing, and I’m here to make my voice heard. I’ve chosen to cast my vote for the Bloggers’ Choice Award, just because it’s fun. (The prospect of owning an N82 doesn’t hurt, either.)

The list of nominees for the award is here. It’s a lengthy list, and I’m sure all those who were nominated deserved it. Still, there can only be one victor, and my choice (and hopefully yours, too) is Filipino Voices.

A collaborative opinion blog written by such legendary personalities as the Jester-in-Exile, warrior lawyer Butch Dado, newspaper columnist Manuel Buencamino, and the mysterious Nick of Tingog.com fame, Filipino Voices is truly the clear, loud voice of the Filipino, and a living testament to the fact that bloggers can compete with, and even defeat, the Jurassic giants of traditional media. Their unbiased and fearless opinion strengthens my trust in the Philippines, and proves that democracy still does abound in the Pearl of the Orient.

On behalf of the people behind the PBA, I’d also like to thank this year’s sponsors for making the event possible:
