One of the more memorable aspects of the annual Webby awards is that winners are restricted to five word acceptance speeches. This year's are just being posted though the page is incomplete and some entries are evidently in need of correction. For example, I'd assume CNN Money.com's "more popular than udobs" should read "More popular than Lou Dobbs".
So far, it doesn't look like a particularly good year. However, I quite liked DealBook's message to Murdoch -- "hey rupert we're available call" -- and Drama winner Itsallinyourhands.com's "Imagine us with a budget." Statler and Waldorf: From the Balcony came up with "Not bad for two geezers".
Guardian Unlimited collected its third Webby in a row, but I'm hoping the list gets updated because I still don't have a clue what this year's five words mean: "please free, ala drumsolo now". Anyone got a translation?
Update: The Webby site -- which still has many errors -- now has the Guardian speech in full. As smarter people than me worked out, it's Please free Alan Johnston now.
