Maybe you can provide some space on the web2con site to show the submissions. My company is one of the applicants and some publicity is always nice

Does this mean the service or site can not have been beta launched before November in order to be eligible?

Need any help on the judging? I’m sure I’d add a little… diversity… to the process.

Was that comment about the 'baker's dozen' to be taken literally?

Behind most Web 2.0 Start-ups lies real-live Human Beings, with dreams, vision, intelligence, education and sweat.

Is it really practical to LIMIT the acknowledgement of excellence to a NUMBER?! Should not we allow the excellence to be the cut-off point - NOT - the number.

Could you envision the group struggling with 13, 14 or 15 great releases and naggingly trying to squeeze 2 or 3 out of the running so that it can be 12 evenly??

Unless there are formidable logistical concerns, a cut-off point should only reflect the greatness of the quality, especially when the future of so many passionate people are being affected.

Also, if a winner simply can not afford the fee, please consider offering some type of grant ♥ - one just never knows how far-reaching a brilliant idea at the right time can have on society
