The International Web Awards Starts Now – follow up




We posted something about this before and now we can deliver the update and announce that The first ever Open Web Awards have arrived. The Open Web Awards is the first ever online, open collaborative awards event, to recognize the best online communities representing web 2.0. The time has now come for nominations. They want people to vote and nominate their favourites and mostly, they want people to get involved and debate their choices.

This is the list of the 13 categories that will be floating around:

1. Mainstream and Large Scale Networks
2. Applications and Widgets
3. Social News and Social Bookmarking
4. Social Search
5. Sports and Fitness
6. Photo Sharing
7. Video Sharing
8. Start Pages
9. Places and Events
10. Music
11. Social Shopping
12. Mobile
13. Niche and Miscellaneous Social Networks

They’ll be presenting the winners at a live award ceremony in San Francisco on January 10th. It’s quite interesting to see how big this thing will be and if they get the proper amount of people joining and participating to make it a relevant Open Web Award.
