Snip:
The 12-member jury of the Deutsche Welle's 2005 Weblog Awards unanimously condemned the blocking of "Wang Yi's Microphone" and called on Chinese authorities to end their censorship of Weblogs and the Internet. (...) Wang Yi's Weblog was among the final three candidates for the Special Award from Reporters Without Borders (RSF). Also among the top three nominees were a blog written by Tunisian judge Mokhtar Yahyaoui and the Egyptian Weblog "Manal and Alaa's Bit Bucket," which went on to win the award.
