The Official Shorty Awards Blog

Connecting People Shorty Award Officially Launched

We’re excited to announce a new Special Shorty Award to highlight the impact social media is having on communities around the world. The “Connecting People” Shorty Award will be given to a person who is genuinely bringing people together through Twitter and social media.

Nominees will be judged based on the impact they’ve had on their communities and the creative ways they’ve used the social web to connect people.

You can nominate yourself or someone else who you think is worthy of being recognized as a great connector. Nominations in this special category close on February 18, 2011.

We thank Nokia for supporting short-form communications and the ways individuals use them to change their communities by launching this category with us.
