This article is part of the Open Web Awards, an open, international contest for the best websites and services.

Last year, our people’s choice winner was Zlio, a French company that lets you create your own online stores, while our judge’s choice was Woot, the “deal a day” website with a cult-like following. Which so

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different Here’s how it works. It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME. The rules are simple — be nice. There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it. Co-host Mark Carter, Social Media Manager What Are We Doing to Save the

Quite honestly, I’m not much into online social networks. A membership with sites like MySpace or Facebook doesn’t appeal to me since I don’t see what the benefit would be, and although I’m a member, I don’t have a use for Flickr or YouTube at the moment. Nevertheless, I appreciate the existence of these networks because they allow me to find information or look up stuff I like, for example I check out new music through MySpace.

It was a tree that had been tormented by different  classes of labourers as well as immigrants and it bore those scars well. The  lower limb of the tree had been mauled beyond recognition. Over a huge  fork in the tree there hung an empty cement bag, a lone slipper, a  ramshackle shoe and an old lungi. On the other fork, there sprouted a  couple of tender young leave
