The finalists for the Canadian New Media Awards are up for your perusal. A bunch of Toronto area folks are up for awards including our friends at murmur! The only thing we're sad about is just how snore-inducing their site is. Maybe its that traditional Canadian modesty or the organizers unwillingness to outshine those who they are celebrating.
In other web awards news the voting form for the Webby Awards are up. The CBC Digital archives are up for an award but other than that the Webbys are thin on CanCon. Cute Overload is also running away with the Blog - Culture/Personal category. Proving that nothing, and we mean nothing, beats fuzzy wuzzy animals.

Newsstand: November 9, 2009

Ugrh. That just smells of the regionally-inclusive, carefully liberal, mediocre and plain-vanilla banalities celebrated in thousands of government-run awards.
