The Thinking Blogger Award
Tammie Beagle was kind enough to award me with a Thinking Blogger Award. Of course, the timing was such that she hadn’t yet read this post 
Anyhow, here’s my award. Isn’t it nice?
The award, though, has some rules and responsibilities attached to it. These are:
1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs which make you think.
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.
3. Optional: Proudly display the Thinking Blogger Award.
So, here are the 5 blogs which make me think.
1. Stii is a cool blog which has all manner of interesting stuff about Flock, microformats and blogging in South Africa. Original and refreshing. The author is also extremely active on StumbleUpon.
2. Rashaan over at Step Into the Nexus runs a blog full of interesting web finds, videos, lists and personal stories about herself and her family. Go check Miss Nexy out now.
3. Chris Lodge’s Blog-Op is an excellent source of information about maximising the potential of your blog, with entries dealing with issues such as PageRank, WordPress plugins, and a regular Sunday quiz. Always useful.
4. The Wrong Advices is an essential read. There’s lots of valuable content here, such as how to avoid duplicate content using a robots.txt file, how to become more productive with your blog, tech news items and WordPress tips. Recommended.
5. Claudia Ceraso’s ELT Notes gives a fascinating perspective on how the internet and Web 2.0 services are impacting on the further education sector. A unique, insightful and intelligent read.
Well, these are the 5 blogs which make me think, and they can consider themselves awarded and tagged. I hope you enjoy reading them.

Claudia, it’s lovely to hear from you. You deserve your award.
No-one else I awarded has written about the 5 bloggers that make them think yet. If they see this, it’s just a gentle reminder!
