Bloggers of the world unite!

This week’s post on blogs will briefly look at three nominees in the Best Latino, Caribbean or South American Blog category for this year’s Weblog Awards. While we commend and congratulate all the nominees, the following trio of blogs is exceptional and should be read as often as possible:

Babalu Blog

An acerbic anti-Castro blog that we commend for its views even if we don’t always agree with it’s content. Politics aside, every so often they will include posts on Cuban cuisine that easily makes one’s mouth water.

Chileno

This blog provides very acute observations on Chilean culture. Topics range from the legacy of ex-dictator Augusto Pinochet to checking out which pharmacies in Santiago sell birth control pills.

Guanabee

The oversimplified description of this blog is a Latino version of Gawker. Yet this blog is more than that in its views of Latino life in the U.S. and “beyond the barrio” in areas such as gossip, media, and current events in the Americas.
