What appears to be the first online contest for the best "business blogs" has netted two winners right here in the Tampa Bay area.

Security Awareness, a computer security firm in Seminole run by long-time tech guru Winn Schwartau, won in two categories: "best overall blog" and "best tech company blog" - the latter competing against heavyweight blogs run by employees at Microsoft and Apple.

"It's the best guerrilla marketing tool out there," Hoffman says of blogs.
