ShortyAwards
I still think I should just register Twitterosophy and call it a day. We review more sites built from the ground of Twitter and Twitter’s API than I could shake a stick at. Really. It’s gotten so thick of Twitter out there, that there are now awards for Twitterers, or Tweeple, in the Twitterverse.
ShortyAwards, a simple shout message over Twitter to @shortyawards formatted like thus: @shortyawards I nominate @twitterperson for a Shorty Award in #whatever [reason]
Like magic, shortyawards starts to follow you, your nomination gets posted to their timeline and their website. Apparently this will end in a few days, December 31st, and a ceremony will take place after in New York City. I imagine an event like this would be filled with people glued to their mobile devices dressed in black tie… Pretty much like a Tweetup, minus the fancy garb.
The people responsible for this mess? @semel @gregory @varga & @atw
Feel free to nominate is under #weird, #longwinded, #bestdamnblogever, or simply nominate your friends for their goofy awesome short contributions to the Internets.
