Award Junkies

I knew we were a generation of award junkies, but has this gone a bit too far?

The first YouTube Video Awards of 2006 allow you to vote for your favourite videos. You've watched them. You've made them famous. Now, vote for the ones that you remember. Simple enough.

Seven categories: Most creative, most inspirational, best series, best comedy video, best music video, best commentary and most adorable video.

Among those categories you will find lonelygirl15 nominated for best series, Blunty2000 for best commentary and the VancouverFilmSchool for most creative.

You have until March 23 to vote.

Since we're making award shows out of everything, how about we have Web 2.0 awards? Let's award the peer networking websites. There's a number of them that can fit under each category like: Worst design (I nominate MySpace), easiest to navigate, will likely not see the next year, best hobby site and so on.

Or how about the best blog?

Or awards for a media site that's trying their best to integrate multimedia to their product?

Some of these already exist, but let's allow the public to vote. Post the categories online and like we've been doing with broadcasting ourselves, let's broadcast our vote.
