Janette Toral is planning to release the Emerging Influential blog project of 2008. Paolo Medoza of BackLineMedia has submitted his list to the organizer. I am picking my own Top 10 emerging influential blogs to be nominated for 2008.
I nominated the following blogs because these bloggers are gradually gaining a considerable amount of readership and influence. Most of all, these are blogs are young as they started blogging anytime from July 1, 2007 to the present.
We are seeing new blogs surfacing each day but the notable consistently good ones are not many. The term consistently good means that post after post these young authors hold fast to their high standard in coming up with good posts and never fail to impress me.
Having complimented the consistently good young bloggers out there, I would like to share with you the reasons why some blogs are not listed although they are generally good, but not consistently good. Simple, just don’t give in to writing rants though it is tempting, I know that. The moment they gave in to it, they really fall behind the foundation of blogging.
I would like to share with you what I meant by the foundation of blogging. It is a potpourri of sharing with others interesting and genuine information; quality images; positive words; argumentative yet not ranting; interactive among authors and readers; and worth spending the time to read.
With such short introduction, I now nominate the following blogs for the Emerging Influential blog project of 2008.
BackLinemedia: America’s Most Trusted News for Cool People.. and it’s Free
Clarence-chua.com: A learning entrepreneur in web based business and marketing.
Suituapui: Was crazy and is still crazy all these years.
Melbie: Vague reveries
Man-D: Unpretentious me
Alifebe: Life beside the edge
Sambaldeli: Sambal Delivery Post
Blackpeanut: The world, viewed from my eyes, felt by my soul.
The following blogs were updated on July 27, 2008:
Jayce Ooi: Photography, programming, technology, finance, anything =)
iCalvyn: IT Engineer’s Blog
Keep up the good job for those who I have lined up! I still have another two more slots.
PS: I wanted to nominate some good blogs but they started writing before July 1, 2007. I can’t nominate you.

melbie,
Welcome. If you would like to nominate other bloggers for the project, remember to add them before July 30. Janette is from the Philippines if I am not mistaken. Lot’s of the blogs are from the Philippines as well. Doesn’t matter whether where we are based as long as we are young bloggers.
suituapui,
Certainly, it was me. Nominate only but still not sure if you are going to the Oscar. Haha. Well, we will only get to know the finalists when they announce it in a month or two. In the meantime, keep up the good job!
clarence,
Feel it. dream it and be there!
JC,
Welcome. Remember that we should not only share with people only on the interesting stuffs which we have written but also share with others what they have written and give them support. This is what I call interactive.
Brian,
Noted. Would you welcome a link exchange? I saw many nice Philipino food there. Must make an effort to visit the Philippines one day.
Sigh i guess i started blogging too early and became active in blogging too late haha.
All the best to the nominees!=)
So if I deleted all my entries before july 1st 2007, would I be eligible? LOL…
Just kidding just kidding… im old already loh, so sad man….

Yo daniel, sure we can exchange links. I’ve added u!=)
Darren,
It’s never too late. As long as we are here to influence others (in a positive) way than we are on the right track. I am not sure what are my chances of being nominated. Hopefully this new theme plus my contents will add more marks for me.
Robin,
You are funny man. You won’t delete your entries, if you ever delete them I will treat you a meal at TGIF. You are an old blogger, I am still a young blogger although we are of the same age. Hehe.
peanut,
You influence others to write crap. That’s influential too! Well, the main reason why I nominated you is because you share with others how a medical student live his live in his university days. Good job!
Darren,
I’ve linked you up as well! Cheers!

Can’t believe that Alifebe.com being nominated by you. This is some kind of momentum for those who been nominated to continue to write.
Hello. 2 more blogs for your entry to be included in our masterlist. Kindly advise should you update. Thank you.
Hi Daniel. It seems the Jayce Ooi and iCalvyn started before July 2007. Kindly advise when you update so I can check it.
