I nominate SiberianLight.

I nominate myself

Thanks for the nomination Yakub!
Nominations do seem to be a bit thin on the ground for this category so far though, which is surprising as there are some excellent CIS blogs out there. Here are a few that I’d like to nominate:
The Russian Dilettante
The Argus
Scraps of Moscow
Lex Libertas
52 North 16… -
I nominate Ukraine, Oh My! which could also be nominated for Best New

I was going to nominate myself, but I see that Andy has helpfully done that already. Thanks.
In addition, I’d like to nominate The Argus and SiberianLight.
Happy New Year, everyone.

Michael S, seconded. She even has a blogged baby.
Damn – forgot all about her… Thirded. Lots of good’uns from Ukraine.
Are self-nominations not too unseemly? If not, I humbly nominate Registan.net.
I would nominate Siberian Light, but Andy has just retired.
Scraps of Moscow deserves a nod too.
If self-nominations are OK, I’ll throw Registan.net out there.
Also, Scraps of Moscow, the whole stable at neweurasia, Oneworld Multimedia, and Blogrel are all superb.
Didn’t mean to comment twice like that! Just didn’t see the first one go through!
But, I’m glad I thought of the other nominees the second time around.
As well as those suggested above, here’s a few Russia blogs that are great reads, and easily deserve to make it to the final:
A Flower that is Somewhat Misty

A Step at a Time

Sean’s Russia Blog

(The last three are all great blogs, but I’m sensing that a slight lack of variety in the naming conventions of blogs about Russia…)
The Russian Dilettante’s Weblog

Oh, and did I mention these great CIS blogs?

Hulegu’s Campaign

MoldovAnn

And I can’t recommend All About Latvia enough but, (happily for Latvia, sadly for Aleks’ chances for winning this particular award), Latvia prefers the EU to the CIS.
Registan.net
SiberianLight Though sadly Andy has called it quits.
and,
Scraps of Moscow
I nominate Untimely Thoughts, by Peter Lavelle.
