ZDNet.co.uk scoops another award
On Tuesday night the UK tech industry's press and PR gathered in London's Piccadilly for an inaugural awards event (I hesitate to use a word that might give the impression it was terribly ceremonious - the tone was very much about having fun and networking).
The Flackenhacks, dreamt up by Peter Kirwan of Fullrun fame, certainly get points for kicking off in style. And of course for awarding ZDNet the title of Best Business Tech Publication 2007.
This is ZDNet's second award in as many months, and it means that in addition to being judged the best business tech website by the AOP, who represent the publishing industry old and new, ZDNet.co.uk is also the best business tech publication (online or off) according to the UK tech industry - or at least those sections of the UK tech industry who like a tipple.
And kudos to our competition in the short list - I have nothing but respect for IT Week and The Register, and the people who work on them despite my tongue-in-cheek acceptance speech on the night.

Are you lot going to have to move again?
Considering the rate you are getting awards at the moment, it could get very cramped hehe.
Well done ZDnet
