I think the reason why Placeblogger came out to be the largest searchable index of local weblogs in the world can be attributed to Lisa Williams. Because Lisa has always been at a hundred percent in bringing up and revolutionizing Placeblogger! The results from such efforts of her and her crew can very well be seen with the kind of awards that they have received. One such honorable one was when they were declared as the winner for Knights 21st century News Challenge!
