After recently getting their Top 500 feature caught up Feedster is now running a countdown to the best Feed of the Year.

Feedster's Community Liaison Alan Graham says in a statement, "As a citizen of the blogosphere, Feedster has always recognized the achievements of independent bloggers and publishers. Our Feed of The Day was created as an opportunity to honor a unique voice or technology from within the din of the web. We are taking this one step further with our "Feed of The Year" Countdown. During the entire month of December we will recognize some of the best contributors to the blogosphere from our own Feed of The Day list."

The countdown list kicked off today with Tropolism picked as Feed of the Year Finalist #31. The Feed of the Year judges include:

Betsy Richter, formerly chief editor of Excite.com, founding editor of Oregon Live, has her own blog My Whim is Law and is captain of Metroblogging's Portland site, one of 30 in an international network.

Dana Blankenhorn, has 25 years of experience writing about Internet content, and ecommerce strategies and is a member of the Internet Media Assn. Blankenhorn also writes the ana's Moore's Law blog on Corante which covers technology.

Russell Shaw is a technology and politics author, journalist, blogger and consultant. Author of seven books, he writes the daily IP Telephony Blog for ZDNet and is a frequent contributor to other tech and news blogs.

The bottom line: there should be some good feeds worth subscribing to being discussed on Feedster this month.
