Sweden’s Internetworld has presided over what is becoming a recognized coming-of-age ritual in national blogging communities: In our case, it’s the first ever Best Swedish Weblog awards (article not online). Erik Stattin’s mymarkup.net, which happens to be my own favorite Swedish weblog, wins deservedly. In a sign that Swedish bloggers still have a lot to learn about the whole point of blogging, instead of sneering and backbiting at the results they heap praise on him! Me included! Help!
So, as a gesture of atonement for my lapse into positive thinking, I’d like to go on the record disagreeing with the other 4 choices. Oh, I read them all, and they are definitely in my top 20, but since we are talking pecking order, here is my numbers 2 to 5: Blind Höna, How to learn Swedish in 1000 difficult lessons, heartland.mine.nu and oh, alright, Jogin.com just this once, because he writes quite good English. For a Swede.
You know, you write pretty good Swedish, too. For an American. 😉
He’s not an American, he’s a Flem!
And thanks for the compliment. And I agree, they definitely picked the best blogger, Erik is tops, a great website, covers a wide range of topics, updated constantly. What more could you want?
I think you’ve the best Swedish weblog, Stefan.
Why do you say things like that? You know it’s going to go straight to my head.
Ah, that explains why I thought pretty much everything in this site made no sense –its in Swedish…
Don’t forget my blog!!!! And I’m a real Swede, and my English is not that bad.
