Webby’s I Read

The Webby Awards: 2003 Nominees was announced awhile ago. I don’t know who goes about selecting them but it’s an academy of some sort. Usually, that means they’re numbnuts that decide on things like Russell Crowe winning Best Actor the year he shouldn’t and not winning the year he should and splitting or hoisting Chicago up on a cinematic pedestal.
From the looks of the nominees though, I’m pleasantly surprised. In almost every category is a site that I regularly visit. Some highlights (this may look like a relisting of all the nominees but these are the subset I go to and all are quality sites):
