This is a fact that we’re really proud of - and if you’re a BlogTalkRadio host - so should you be. Using social media tools to create community around live interaction for personal or business promotion is an amazing aspect of Web 2.0. We’re glad to be able to provide a platform for generating such content. Special thanks to our community for rallying to the call and supporting BlogTalkRadio.

    Our own Kris Smith and Hilary Leewong will appear at the Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco to accept the award this Thursday on behalf of the entire organization.

    The 2008 Webware 100 Awards recognize the best Web 2.0 sites, services, and applications on the Web today. After receiving more than 5,000 nominations for inclusion in the Webware 100, our editors selected 300 finalists. But the Web’s users (that was YOU) decided the final cut, voting nearly two million times to select the 100 top products–10 each in of 10 categories–from our list of 300 finalists.
