The Unconventional Wisdom Blogging Awards

April 14 is Darren Rowse’s Blogger Appreciation Day.

Martial Development
Unconventional Wisdom
Award Winner

What are the Unconventional Wisdom Awards?
I created the Unconventional Wisdom Awards to give recognition to, and show my appreciation for unusually insightful, thought-provoking blog content.

How do you select award winners?
I randomly choose award-winning posts from among the best I discover. Your two-step path to victory:

1. Write something great.
2. Get it onto my radar.

The easiest way to get my attention is to link to, and/or comment on something on this site. Please keep it meaningful; begging for a prize may get you disqualified.

And what will I win?
A link, some extra traffic, bragging rights, and the privilege of displaying a cool award graphic on your site. Here is the HTML code used above:

Unconventional Wisdom<br><b>Award Winner</b></a></p>

Unconventional Wisdom Award Winners

April 2008

• Rory A. Miller, for (among other things) supplying my new unofficial blog comments policy: First, tell me what you know. Then tell me what you don’t know. Only then tell me what you think.
  
• Guy Kawasaki’s Alltop, for recognizing Martial Development’s contributions to the field of…career advice? Personally, I might have placed it at the top of the Lifehacks, Education, Health, or Sports categories—but I’m not complaining.

More award winners coming soon…
