In case it passed you by the 14th Webby Awards happened in June. This has become a fairly major affair but like so many big industry promoting awards seems perhaps a little too concerned with not leaving someone out, with around 70 categories and 2 or more winners in each category. That’s not to say they are not a good thing but maybe in danger of losing their worth if they just award everyone? Just a thought.
Winning highlights were BBDO (www.bbdo.com) winning the Agency of the year, NYTimes.com (www.nytimes.com) for copywriting, hboimagine.com (www.hboimagine.com) for navigation/structure and the BBC for news (www.bbc.co.uk) which is probably well deserved. I was a Sky fan for a long time but have been won back over recently by Auntie’s consistently fine content and delivery over many forms of media.
