Just noticed that you’re still a judge of the DMA.

Now that you’re familiar with them for the past year or two- do you still see them as very different to the Golden Spiders?

What payment methods do they take for nominations? I’m almost tempted to pay for Twenty’s nomination

Disclose your real name and Iâ€™ll tell you.

No thanks. I’ve no wish to have any ‘friend’ of yours ringing up my workplace.

Speaking of disclosure and awards:

i) just who were the judges on the Irish Blog Awards this year?
ii) what’s the story with that Microsoft employee who turned up as a judge, after you had earlier left the impression that they had no involvement other than sponsorship??

Looking forward to these awards. I went last year and they were well run with Dave Fanning keeping things running nicely, even though there were lots of categories.

Agreed! I looked at it and thought to myself, “1996 called and it wants its website back!” That’s just a placeholder site, right? Right??

Hey that’s great, I’m sure the winner will be one who deserves it.
Hmm.. I clicked through to the Digital Media Awards expecting to see the usual savvy awards site but it seems a bit too much like an underground hacker site a few years back.
Don’t get me wrong – I’m all for a hip jazzy logo and all but the design really doesn’t do the awards’ status justice.
My opinion anyway.
Thought: “What’s with award websites and using template software?”
