A group is defined as two or more regular contributors. This is a bit touchy, with the explosion of Scoop-like communities, leading to a probable inclusion of a blogging community category as well, this year or next. Aggregators also don't fit. Group blogs are like singleton blogs, but with one or more contributors posting original material.
Once again, please vote for only one. It gets much more complicated sifting through all the comments and tallying with lists in the mix.
Update 1/6/05: I assume someone was making a joke referencing Wizbang's one-vote-per-day policy, but just to clarify, please only vote once per category. Ever. Well, at least until the final nominees are listed.
