All kidding aside, we’re all super excited to have won the New Media BC’s People’s Choice 2008 Award for Best User Generated Content or Crowdsourced Content Site. Nadia and I had an incredible time at the Awards Ceremony and Gala - as you can see in the pictures. We were extremely honoured to be nominated for this award and ecstatic that we won.
