Yes! A Webby award nomination. No! Not for this stupid blog of course. My good buddy Sander is winning prizes with his Rube Goldberg viral animation. Now the viral is nominated for a Webby. The nomination in itself is a recognition for his work. But let’s help Sander to win the Webby we all know he deserves. Voting can be done here. We keep our fingers crossed. Good luck Sander!
