Post Of The Month – October ’10 – Nominations

ThinktankPOTM1

Some properly provocative posts this month, which is good to see. I'm opening up nominations promptly as I will be leaving soon for Africa with The Great (Ad & Media) Football Giveaway, so need to get a move on with the nominations and voting. So nominations for October are open – please do nominate your favourite posts that were posted in that month in the comments below. As a starter, I've listed four nominations of my own – please add yours and I'll stick them all up for a vote. My starting four are:

My iPad Magazine Stand by Kohl Vinh

A Letter To Myself from Heidi Hackemer

The Future Is Behind Us by The Ad Contrarian

Social Media Is Dead by Adriana Lukas

And you can nominate your own favourite below…

    Full transparency: I’m self-nominating because I genuinely want to hear more people’s thoughts on it.

    Pedant time: Adriana’s post is from March. Does that mean that blog posts from any month can be nominated, as long as they were read/discovered in October?

    By the way, thanks for linking to “A Letter To Myself” from Heidi Hackemer. It’s a really good one.

    I’m going to vote for the ad contrarian post. Honestly felt Adriana Lukas’ post was a little confused in it’s argument.

    Right. Thanks for the nominations all.
    @Ian and @chris I don’t normally allow self-nominations but as Dan has seconded Ian’s nomination it’s in.
    @chris I also usually allow one nomination per person – though in truth I have been known to make exceptions – as there’s a long list this month, I’m taking John Battelle’s post. Thanks.
    @Paul your right. Forgive me. I came across that post recently and missed that so as this is only a vote for posts from the month of October I shall not be including it. Sorry folks.

    Cool concept, Neil. This is my first time visiting your blog, and I’m already finding some great content.
    Also, thanks to Chris Butler of Newfangled for nominating my Unplugged Experiment post.
