Kairos awarded their Best Academic Weblog prize for 2005 to Collin Brooke, assistant professor of writing at Syracuse University. It is not entirely clear what "best weblog" might mean at this point, but in his citation Mike Edwards writes, "out of all the nominees, Collin's weblog best met the criteria for this year's award. Collin is a consistent, insightful, and engaged blog poster and commenter. He does careful and impressive work addressing and interlinking issues relevant to our field, and he's put his weblog to some deeply innovative uses, of which his online seminar and the rhetoric carnival are two excellent examples."
