The fourth Global Chinese Blog Award-the biggest blog award in Chinese blogosphere-hosted by Taiwan's Chinatimes.com just finished sign-up stage this evening with a result of more than 10,000 blogs signing in 16 categories. The most competitive category is Art and Culture which has 3,015 contesting blogs while the least is Political Parties and Central Government with only four runners. I was one of the judges in last year contest and I managed to read over 7,500 blogs at that time as if I was mad.
