#19 web 2.0 awards

Exploring the web 2.0 awards is a great index to fascinating and useful web sites for particular web categories. I was very surprised that these awards even existed. My first thoughts were imagining a group of computer geeks sitting in some hall, sipping red cordial and dressed in tuxedos while the MC (possibly Bill Gates), would announce and the winner is!! While the the awards does list some great web sites, I wonder who the judges are who decide upon places and think that they could possibly be biased and promoting their own orgaisations. The awards are definitely biased to American web sites and I am still looking for an offshore place getter. But after all, America is the centre (or center) of the universe.
