(For the week of July 2 to July 8, also including the pre-Holiday week of June 25 to July 1)

Picks - we got 'em. Apologies for the delay in bringing these Blogcritics' Editors Picks to you. Since last we sifted and lifted up the wheat, we have with us a new Culture Editor Lisa Hoover. Welcome. We have already added in Ms. Hoover's choices, and in the transition as bhw moves on to her date with a guillotine Comment Queen status, her fine taste lingers in her choices as well.

A post to your site about these choices would be helpful and provide your readers a quick hot hit of the best of BC. Just copy the link in the URL address field of your browser and go ...

(See here for the last picks post and our complete guidelines.)

Here is the meat of why we are doing this: The idea for Editor's Picks is absolutely to be subjective based on only a few guiding principles.

...
There won't be a certain number from each category (Music, Books, Video, Culture / Tech, Politics). There might not be something from every category, but a section editor may be away. If nothing sparked an editor in a certain week, we will mention that, too.
...
There will be no set number each week, but with about 250 posts a week, somewhere between 5 and 15 will be typical. Self-submissions are NOT encouraged. It's what caught the eye of the editors.

If an editor likes other editor's work, those come in a separate area.

For those who have suddenly become interested in us editors who roam restlessly behind the scenes, we are Lisa Iannucci, Politics; Lisa Hoover, Culture / Tech; Eric Berlin, TV / Video, Pat Cummings, Books, Temple Stark, Music. Those five, along with the occasional pick from site Publisher Eric Olsen, Tech rager Phillip Winn and Asst. Site Editor Justene Adamec.
