Lots of glee and some dashed hopes as the Webby winners are announced. The BCC won four awards, including best news site; Guardian Unlimited, the only UK site on the shortlist, won for best newspaper site. Also, 43Things.com, social networking; BoingBoing, blog; Flickr, web breakout of the year …
Meanwhile, you’d think the Webbys would have lined up extra server capacity for today but the site was impossible to reach the last few times I tried. In a nice PR coup for his new cable channel and broadband efforts, former VP Al Gore will get The Webby Lifetime Achievement Award from Vint Cerf.
