Well, today is the day that the winners of the 2006 Weblog Awards are being announced. The awards “ceremony” is being held as we speak down in Texas at the SXSW conference. I was going to go myself… but I have a new film project getting started and just couldn’t afford the time or money to go. So just like everyone else I sit and wait for the announcement.
For those of you who may not know, our show “The Audio Edition” was nominated in the “Best Podcast” category which was a HUGE thrill for us (I know it’s silly that we got this excited… but we REALLY did). The winners should be announced a little later today.
There are 2 things that made the nomination really special for us.
#1) The Audio Edition is by far the most fun thing we do around here and we’re particularly passionate about it.
#2) We were the only Canadian based site (yes we’re in Canada) and the only movie related show to be nominated in the category.
Do we have a chance in hell of winning? Probably not… but I’m sitting here with my fingers crossed anyway. Special thanks to all of you amazing folks who listen to The Audio Edition and especially those who took the time to go and vote for our little show. It meant the world to us and you have no idea how much we appreciate you all. You make this job fun.
As soon as I know the results… I’ll let you know.
The Movie Blog Won!
I was listening to the Movie Blog Audio Edition March 1st 2006 when you were talking about Superman Lives with Kevin Smith. I have link here where Kevin is giving a talk about what happened. It’s very funny.
