There's not much I can say about the awards because of my role as a screener (the first stage in the process), but I'd like to help get the word out about this effort. Professional media organizations are well-represented in the list of 2002, 2001, and 2000 winners, but I get the impression that most independent Web sites and weblog publishers don't realize that half of the awards are devoted to them.
To prove the point, in 2001 a one-person site called Theme Park Insider won for its coverage of theme park accidents (and is still on top of the story today).
