Haven’t quite recovered enough energy or compiled the thoughts properly on last night’s Irish Web Awards but suffice to say it was a cracking night, had fantastic fun and met a whole bunch of new rockin’ people.
Major kudos to Damien and all the IWA gang for a great night, congrats to all the winners.
Hard to believe it’s almost a year since I took my precious styrofoam W home from the first Irish Web Awards. It has even survived moving house with me.
Last October I headed along to the Irish Web Awards despite being stood up at the last minute. It was my first “internet event”. I was but a fledgling Twitter user and barely cutting my teeth at blogging (not much of a change there!). Despite that, I was surprised by how many faces and names I recognised. First and foremost, it was great to see so much wonderful local web design and development talent on show getting recognised. It was also a great opportunity to meet with other people in various aspects of the web industry from designers to bloggers to project managers to programmers and many others. In short, I had a brilliant time and here’s hoping for more of the same tomorrow night.
