Awards for 4 February 2010 edited by Duncan Stephen
One of the things that really struck me as I was gathering votes was the large differences between the choices of the panellists and the choices of the voters. As the overall ranking depended on doing well on both lists, plenty of popular blogs ended up losing out.
As such, I thought it was worth mentioning those blogs that scored particularly well in one of the rankings, but ended up with a moderate overall ranking due to doing poorly in the other one.
The runaway winner of the readers’ poll was We Know SFA, with over 50% more votes than the second most popular blog. But just one panellist voted for it, sending the blog down to 16th place overall.
Likewise, music blog Peenko came second in the readers’ rankings, but only 33rd in the panellists’ rankings.
Three blogs were in the top ten in the readers’ rankings, but did not get the nod from any of the panellists: Newsnet Scotland, Scots Law News and What’s in Kelvin’s Head.
Additionally, four other blogs finished in the top ten among readers, but only garnered one vote from among the panellists: Gerry Hassan, Indygal goes to Holyrood, Subrosa and Ian Hamilton QC.

It says a lot about the quality of Scottish blogging that the blogs in this list remain strong right towards the bottom, and several well-known and excellent blogs have missed out on a top 25 slot. A full run-down of all the blogs will be published on Friday.
Update: This list has been corrected from the earlier (slightly inaccurate) one.
Tomorrow, the top 25 personal / general blogs will be unveiled in the morning, with the best newcomers being declared in the afternoon.
