My 2012 Edublog Nominations #eddies12

2012 Edublog Award Nominations

The following are my nominations for the 2012 Edublog Awards.  My goal with this year's nominations was to nominate people who I did not nominate last year or to highlight a new site.  I wish we could nominate three for each category.  There simply are too many great and deserving sites and people to celebrate.  Regardless if you're in favor of the awards or not, I appreciate this time of year to discover a few new sites to try and people to add to my PLN.
