If you’ve not done so yet, you still have a few days to get nominating your favourite websites for the Realex Irish Web Awards. Many site owners have issues with nominating themselves. The trouble is others sometimes assume that your site has already been nominated. Nominate it yourself or encourage your users to do so. Be proud, not shy.
We’ll be opening up a form where the general public can sign up to be judges for the Awards too. This will go live before Friday.
The Social Media category will also have a special form added later this week and the closing date for nominations will be mid-September. Watch out for that!

Many thanks to Realex Payments who approached us months back asking to be headline sponsors for the 2009 Irish Web Awards. We hope to improve in our second year and there’ll be some changes with the categories. The scorecard will be changed slightly too and is still going to be public and this year the aggregated scores for websites entered will be made public too.
Naturally, we’re on Twitter too. A few competitions and announcements to be communicated in the next few days and weeks.

I’m going to be putting in an order for more Web Awards trophies with the trophy maker in the next few days. It seems some people broke or had their Web Awards trophies broken on them and other people want copies of them as both the designers and website owners want to keep the lovely bits of glass. Trophies cost about €70 each or thereabouts.
If you want to order trophies then email contact < at > awards.ie with details of the trophy you want.
