Results of the Next Web Awards and predictions

Posted by Marco Kotrotsos on April 04, 2008

Well, the results are in…Didn’t do to well. One big surprise. I never guessed Hyves would be voted top european company. Kudos for them- but I really don’t believe it. Hyves is one of those things that just doesn’t feel right- but you have to use it, cuz everyone does (like myspace was I suppose) It’s slow, messy, complicated to look at (actually hurts to look at).  They have critical mass- but I don’t think you will survive with just critical mass alone.  It needs to feel right…Right now, there is not just one things for me that ‘feels right’ it’s a combination of many.

anyway- the results

Entertainment: Last.fm - got this
European Company: Hyves - didn’t get this- I called for Dailymotion
Social: StudiVZ - Damn didn’t get this.
Webceleb: Loic le Meur - Yep, called this also.
Weblog: Dutchcowboys - I don’t even  have them in my reader- whaddayaknow
Rookie of the Year: Glubble -hm, I called fring
On Stage Start-up: Wakoopa - That was a complete guess offcourse- I called Twingly
