Webby Award Honouree

Woo-hoo. This site is an official Webby Award Honouree for the 2008 Webby Awards. Thank you all 42 of my Feedburner subscribers! To get into the top 15% out of 10,000 entries isn’t bad.

I am pleased. But to be honest, I was secretly hoping to break into the nominees tank this year - especially after this post. That seriously made me blush. But it’s been a tough year for internet humourists, what with newcomers I Can Haz Cheeseburger and The Onion. (I LINKED TO YOU FROM MY BLOG MANY TIMES ONION! REMEMBER THAT!)

Another Facebook Spoof

Cocoon For Men

Cocoon For MenHey man - don’t want to face the world. Don’t blame ya. It’s a big scary world world out there. Full of responsibilities, difficult situations and death. And you simply don’t want to face it. If you’d rather have kid’s toys delivered direct to your door and spend your weekends playing with remote-controlled AV technology, you’ve come to the right place!

(This is one of my favourite spoofs in the book. It was written by Joel Morris and myself, for Seethru.co.uk, about 6 years ago, right at the height of my gadget obsession. It runs to 2 pages in the book.)
