webbies

Yesterday’s announcement by the BBC that it had won a Webby for best radio site at this year’s awards ceremony has been borne out by the official results, suggesting that the Beeb may just have had a degree of prior knowledge of the outcome. Surprises included Live Journal beating Blogger into second place for Personal Website (Peoples Choice Award), but they have been lobbying distastefully hard. Weird site of the year went to the widely blogged Peter Pan homepage, but at least logic prevailed with the choice of Google as ‘Best Practice’ and the award for humour being received once again by The Onion.
