Just ask a Ninja to win the Webby Awards

·

Most of the 11th Annual Webby Awards winner are departed from a unique idea and “niche market” to create their websites. Such experiment and maneuvre were also needed. And what’s the details, just Ask A Ninja to answer….
The winners of the 11th Annual Webby Awards, which are devoted to “honoring excellence on the Internet,” have been announced. Encompassing nearly 70 categories in Web sites, interactive advertising, mobile media, and online video, this year’s winners ran the gamut from a site devoted to cute photos of baby animals to the hit NBC sitcom The Office.
Each category had five official nominees, and within each category there was a judge-picked winner as well as a “Peoples’ Voice” winner chosen by a popular vote. (In some categories, the same site won both awards.) A full list of winners is available here.
There was a distinct emphasis on the media-sharing sites that have popped up over the past few years: the Yahoo-owned photo-sharing site Flickr won in three categories: Community, Best Practices, and Design-Function; and video blogging platform Blip.tv won in the “Broadband” category.” Viral video, too, was also heavily recognized. Costumed video podcaster Ask A Ninja was selected for a “Best Actor” award in the Film & Video division, while “Lonelygirl15″ actress Jessica Rose earned the “Best Actress” title. There was a separate award for the best in viral phenomena, which was won by The Extreme Diet Coke & Mentos Experiments video in which two guys in lab coats set off soda geysers.
The “Person of the Year” awards, appropriately enough, went to YouTube co-founders Steve Chen and Chad Hurley.
