Thinking of starting a business blog but unsure of what you might share, what tone of voice  to use in your writing or perhaps you just want to research other business blogs in Ireland.

Well a great place to start is taking a look at the blogs that have been nominated by the public and by authors of blogs for the forthcoming Irish Blog Awards 2009.

First take a look at the long line of business blogs that were initially nominated HERE. What inspiration can you get from them. Perhaps you could even reach out to some of the authors and ask them for their guidance.

Last night (when I had no Internet access thanks to the bad weather) the long list of nominations were announced HERE.

There will be another stage to get to the final short list before public voting opens. But frankly I think many of the business bloggers are not so worried about whether they are the Best Business Blog of 2009 – it’s just great to see that the number of high quality business blogs in Ireland is growing – and long may it do so.

Here are the list of business blogs in alphabetical order in the long list as announced last night. Great blogs to read and brilliant minds behind them (I can say that as I know almost all of them).

• Argolon
• Blacknight Blog
• Brian Honan Consulting
• Brightspark Consulting
• Curious Wines
• Cybercom
• eWrite Cork
• Fortify Your Oasis
• Icecream Ireland
• iFoods.tv

• Krishna De (yes that’s me!)
• Niceday Designs

And a final word of thanks – to Damien Mulley who has orchestrated and masterminded the awards and encouraged business blogging (and in fact any kind of blogging) without whom we would not have the Irish Blog Awards, Richard Hearn of Red Cardinal who is the sponsor of this years business blogging category and to whoever nominated Biz Growth News this year (it’s an honour to be included in the list).
