The Webbys were announced last night and the travel category turned up many of the usual suspects. Not that we figured we had a chance, but we had hope we’d be considered. Alas, the winners and nominees were almost all service-related sites. I didn’t see much in the way of travel blogs anywhere.
Oh well. But the winners deserve the accolades. All of them are top notch sites that have done a lot to help us make our big travel plans.
