A couple of years back the British blogosphere basically revolved around a couple of technology journalists ranting about source codes and operating systems. Glad to say that it is now a much more diverse place. For evidence check out the finalists of the Best of British Blog awards being run by Ask.co.uk (cheers for the ads guys) in collaboration with Metro (it is a regional newspaper, apparently). Shiny has done reasonably well scoring three nominations for surprise, surprise, our three biggest blogs; TechDigest, Shiny Shiny and Catwalk Queen. There are a few of our mates in there too, notably Shiny affiliated site Hecklerspray, the wonderful footy site Arseblog, ace cricket blog Corridor and top fashionista StyleBubble.
