Of course you do. Would you believe there is now a thousand dollar scholarship for students who blog? And you can nominate yourself?

Just got a nice note from Daniel Kovach of CollegeScholarships.org announcing their blogging scholarship competition.
As is well-known to ScienceBlogs.com readers, our own Shelley Batts of Retrospectacle! won the $1,000 runner-up prize last year.

Is there a real reason why like so many other contests, this one is only open to US citizens?

Well, this is not a contest, and there's no money in it, but on the positive side, it's not open only to US residents. And recent threads have shown PZ has lots of readers in the UK, so maybe this email announcement I received today will be of interest to someone here.

We have made this scholarship available to any student who goes to college in the U.S. We see no reason not to do so.
Also, we have upped the prize money and made it an annual award of $5000.

Alon, foreign students don't seem to be excluded any more - now you just have to study at an US college.
Finally got to it and nominated a couple of good science blogs written by undergrads.
