File this one under shameless plug #8462... It's not to late to submit this site for a Webby Award.

The International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences is extending its call for entries for its 6th Annual Webby Awards.

The new deadline is Friday, February 15, 2002.

Called by some the "Oscars of the Internet," The Webby Awards is an international honor for Web sites and individual achievement in technology and creativity.
