The 10th Annual SXSW Web Awards uncover the best new websites and celebrate those who are building and implementing tomorrow's online trends.
We are pleased to reveal the 10th Annual SXSW Web Awards Winners. Stay tuned for video highlights of the event.
Winners in all categories (ranging from "Amusement" to "Blog" to "Music" to "Technical Achievement" to "Best of Show") were announced at the 10th Annual SXSW Web Awards Ceremony Presented by Adobe on Sunday evening, March 11 at the Hilton Austin Downtown. The highly-entertaining evening included the Web Awards Pre-Party, plenty of industry peers and the hilarious antics of emcee Ze Frank.
Web Awards Pre-Party
6:00 pm in two locations! Head to Brush Square Park (tented area just north of convention center) for Tex-Mex cuisine, drinks and the the kick-snare chemistry of DJ Orion.

Be ready when the Austin Grand Ballroom doors open at 7:30 pm! Emcee Ze Frank leads the evening's assorted surprises.
We're pleased to announce that the 10th Annual SXSW Web Awards Ceremony is presented by Adobe Systems -- creators of Photoshop, InDesign, Flash and Dreamweaver (acquired from Macromedia) and many other amazing software applications for digital creatives.
The winners of the Best of Show and People's Choice prizes at the Web Awards Ceremony on Sunday evening, March 11 will receive a premium prize package including software from Adobe.
In addition to the Adobe software, this year the Best of Show winner will receive a package of tech-related prizes and goodies worth more than $1000 including a complimentary travel package. This travel package provides a Platinum Pass for SXSWeek 2008, four nights hotel in Austin, and a round-trip domestic air ticket on American Airlines (subject to rules and restrictions).
Although finalists in each category are announced February 1, the winners of the competition are not revealed until the 2007 SXSW Web Awards Ceremony -- scheduled Sunday evening, March 11 at the Hilton Austin Downtown.
Ze Frank, the hilarious host of the popular vlog The Show, will serve as emcee of this not-to-be-missed event.
