EduBlog Awards 2010 Nominations

I'm so excited to be casting my virtual ballot for the Edublog Awards this year.  There are so many wonderful bloggers out there -from whom I learn so, so much. Honestly, it's tough to pick just one for each category, but, in my opinion, these folks represent the gold standard in each category.  Really.  If I had a dollar for each time I referenced or shared a link from one of these people, well.. you know the rest.  To sum up, they are definitely what I aspire to be if/when I grow up.  It is my pleasure to recognize them (in this small way) for helping me become better at what I do.  Both I, and my google reader, thank you! :)
