The winners of the Air New Zealand Best Blog Awards

Tumeke has the announcement, plus their own comments.

The winner is Cactus Kate. I think this is a great choice. Not only does Catcus have a superb writing style, but her business stories some of the best in NZ. She has shed light on many issues around NZX, the Securities Commission etc.

Runner up is the Dim Post. No need to explain why. As I have said before, someone should be paying him for such good satire. If there was a comedian’s union, they’d be trying to knock him off for giving away for free, what others charge for.

Equal third place getters were No Right Turn and Whale Oil. Very different styles, but both must reads that have a significant impact on our political system.

Congrats to everyone who entered, and to the organisers and judges. Hopefully this will become an annual event.
