UPDATE: The nominations period has ended. Thanks to all who showed their support for the site.

Once again, it’s time for the Bloggies, the annual awards for, well… blogs. If you’ve been a reader of Consumerist for long enough, you know that we’ve been a bridesmaid many times over. But that’s not going to dishearten us from throwing our name into the nominations hat this year.

So if you want to help put Consumerist into consideration, go to 2011.bloggi.es and put our URL into whichever categories you feel are appropriate.

Alas, in spite of a spate of quality finance/business/consumer news sites out there, there is no category that specifically encompasses that topic. In past years, we’ve been nominated in the Best Topical Blog, Writing, Group Blog and Weblog of the Year categories.

You have until 10pm ET on Sunday night to submit Consumerist (and whatever other blogs you might enjoy) for consideration.
