Mark Ashley from Upgrade Travel has contacted me to inform me that the Travvies will indeed run this year. Apparently there was a problem last year and the nominations were collected but something went badly wrong at that point. He plans to revive it and will kick off the process in about a month so watch this space. You can see the list of 2007 winners here. [...] [...] This news just in.

This is standard practice in most awards - the Bloggies do it too. Winning two categories might deprive someone else from winning, but so does winning one category. In the judges' opinion they were better. I'm glad to see this initiative as I feel that there needs to be more recognition of travel blogs and more of a travel blog community, like there is with food blogs, for example. There are 11 food blogs in the Bloggies finals, but no travel blogs. We should try to change this and also support stand-alone initiatives like this one. Griping about the outcome is not helpful.
