aka “The Bloggies” …are happening live now on Twitter http://twitter.com/#!/Bloggies
First winner is Jo Nova! Congratulations to her!
It was a tough call in Australia, because we also like Simon at Australian Climate Madness too. Maybe next year.
Tallbloke stands tall!
McIntyre – Oh Canada!
Ice cube survives in hell, film at 11…
Look at the competition – these are no small potatoes:
95 minutes from now:( 5:50 PM ) we’ll know if WUWT wins Lifetime achievement. Given the major players WUWT was up against in Sci/Tech I’m happy now just the way it is.
UPDATE: 7:30PM
Speechless, I am:

Skeptic blogs win every category they were nominated in, a clean sweep.
My sincere thanks to everyone, and especially the moderation team, who works tirelessly to keep a good experience going here. – Anthony
Congratulations to Anthony, JoNova, Steve McIntyre, etc.
Fantastic and richly deserved – the truth will out!
Delighted for Jo too – great job
Steve deserves a knighthood – don’t let Charlie give it tho 🙂
I hope Tallbloke feels ever so slightly chuffed now – top man.
As ever Anthony – well done (and the mods too) – you all deserve the Nobel Peace Prize – guess I won’t hold my breath 🙁
Double congratulations to you Anthony and your whole crew. Richly deserved on both counts.
Keep up the good work!
W^3
Good Onyer, Anthony! I am so pleased to see you honored thus. Your blog is the one I turn to first. Jim Brock, Houston
Congratulations to Jo, Steve, Tallbloke and Anthony and his team……… oh, AND ANTHONY’S FAMILY.
A Lifetime Achievement Award in just a few years and at such a young age as well!!

I suspect I’d beat you for that one Roy 🙂
Loved your book BTW. You have an excellent sense of humour.
May I suggest you alter the wording on the Weblog banner…
“Two Timer”… has other meanings.
How about the word “Second” ?
just a thought.
REPLY: Correction. The 2008 award on my sidebar was a different awards program, now defunct. So WUWT is eligible for one more nomination in the Sci/Tech category next year. On the Lifetime Achievement, you are correct. – Anthony
Ah, I was confused since both awards bore the same name. But I see now that they were from different websites.
Absolutely an amazing turnout for the books!!
Lifetime Achievement Award as well that’s fantastic!!
Congrats all who work so hard to make this blog a fun place to visit. Especially congrats on the life time achievement award!
Well deserved for all the winners, especially Anthony and moderators for all their hard work over the years!
I thought a lifetime award was only for old guys after a very long career and those who already passed away, but I hope that is not the case here and that we can enjoy this blog for many years to come…
Way to go!!!
OMG!!!Woohoooooooooo
Congrats friend!
Congratulations Anthony and team! Well deserved.
congratulations on the public vote of confidence for all four of you working hard to revel the truth and inner workings of “climate science” vs real scientific method applications. I would consider these awards a recruitment bonus to reflect the expanded coverage you are getting from the public, more is needed to reach the entire population of “should be concerned citizens” toward this end I have sent you 10% of my annual income, sorry it is so little.
The most unstoppable things in the world are, time, love, truth, and an idea whose time has come.
Reblogged this on Digging in the Clay.
I also congratulate the winners. It is recognition of their efforts to spread the truth, and their defeat of the alarmists and their multi-million dollar PR.
Congrats, Anthony! You’re doing an EXCELLENT job. Wish you folks (= The Whole Bunch Of Realists) much success further on.

In all the Peter Gleick excitement I missed this. A thousand apologies I did not take the time to vote for you. Congratulations Anthony, you run a really good blog.
My previous post was far too miserly. A huge and hearty well done to all the award winners. And to make amends for earlier shortcomings, I hereby pledge to toast each of you with a wee dram of fine single-malt Scotch Whiskey. My cupboard affords a fair selection of common and obscure varieties. So to Jo Nova, Tallbloke, Steve McIntyre, and Anthony Watts: let me know your request for specific brand and I will do my best to accommodate.
Who would have thought taking a leak in Nov a couple years ago would have brought a tipping point?
This is a great site. Don’t wait for enRomm to send flowers.
Wait a minute … speaking of the Oscars: Anthony where’s your acceptance speech? I promise to not queue the orchestra if you run over 45 seconds.
Congratulations, to all. Isn’t it interesting that a Climate blog has won in the tech/science category against such perennial heavyweights such Engadget, TechCrunch and Gizmodo? I wouldn’t have taken that bet …
Encounters with a Stoat; Posting at William Connellys’ blog:
Disgraceful! How can this happen! The very three websites (WUWT, Jo Nova and Tallbloke) that are the worst of the worst have all three of them just got awards at “The Bloggies”!
I mean…where is yours?
[I fear that just demonstrates the obvious: that these awards are based entirely on voting numbers and take no account of quality -W]
