Last night the winners of the 2009 Edublog Awards were announced. Free Technology for Teachers won in two categories; Best Resource Sharing Blog and Best Individual Blog. Thank you to everyone that nominated me and voted for me.
I was very happy to see that two people I nominated, Karl Fisch and Steven Anderson, won last night. Karl Fisch won the Lifetime Achievement Award. Karl is the original creator of the "Did You Know?" (Shift Happens) presentations that have been seen by millions of educators world wide. "Did You Know?" is now into its fourth official remix. If you haven't seen any of the "Did You Know?" videos watch this one now. Steven Anderson won for Best Individual Tweeter. Steven is a great person to follow on Twitter as he always has something interesting to share.
Kevin Hodgson has compiled the full list of winners from each category, please check it out as you may discover a new-to-you blog. Any of the blogs that were on the short list of nominees is well worth giving a visit and or subscribing to. I subscribe to a lot of them myself.

Richard,
Thanks for all you do and congratulations on the award! It was well-deserved. You were one of the first blogs I started following via Google Reader and I routinely bombard my staff, and colleagues with your posts on the plethora of resources you send our way.
Enjoy and we will wait a bit on the lifetime achievement award even though you have done more than most others will do in their lifetime.
Congrats! You deserve it. Your blog, along with Teach Paperless, were the 1st two I started following and got me started in blogging. The resources you share have helped me, my colleagues, and my students.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Of course you won, but in two categories, EXACTLY! This is one of the most useful, resource, interesting, relevant, engaging blogs that I subscribe to. I am so impressed that you post some much fantastic info on a regular basis!
