More Nominations for Catholic New Media and Innovation Awards

The nominations keep rolling in. Please send more, I'll continue to post them. I want to hear your thoughts on the nominees as well. Cheers!

The Ironic Catholic - Already a winner of many blog awards, this is a favorite for those who appreciate a humor with a Catholic message.

Catholic New Media Roundup - "This blog will be my place to respond to, and participate in this growing Catholic online community." Kind of like my blog, Evangelization 2.0, only better. Cool.

Sacred Space - "An amazingly elegant Ignatian influenced lectio divina to pray at your computer, and hugely popular (justly so). It's run by the Ireland Jesuits and has the prayer session of the day in something like 20 languages."

The Other 6 - "Where does God bubble up in your life the other six days of the week? " "It's a VERY creative interactive site that encourages you to reflect upon where God has been in your life today and where you need to see God in your life. Once again, pretty Ignatian, but in a seeker-friendly way. It was created by Loyola Communications."

FlockNote.com - I am going to write more about this one later. FlockNote helps Catholics send notes to their "flock" via the website, email, txt message, or even Facebook notification - all from one place. It also helps bring similar types of groups, parishes, and dioceses together in one network to encourage pariticipation and communication...and therefore Evangelization. "It's not only "New Media," but it's totally innovative - bringing together many of the new technologies on the internet and applying them in a totally fresh, unique way to help Catholics communicate better." It in beta. I like the idea. So after I check into a little deeper, I'll post my review.
