New Statesman – finalists, but no prize this time

Jon Worth — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 09:04:09 +0000

I represented whodoicall.eu at the New Statesman New Media Awards last night in London. We were finalists in the Campaigning for Change Award and were beaten to the prize by The Big Green Switch. As you’ll see from the site their effort is rather better resourced than our site is! Plus I think using the web to change people’s behaviour regarding the environment is more en vogue at present than talking about the EU.

So what were the awards like? I felt rather like a familiar outsider there – the shirt-but-no-tie, geeky but creative, brandish a Moo card – environment was one in which I felt relaxed. Yet apart from Sunny, Nosemonkey, John Band and Paulie (fellow UK political bloggers) I knew no-one, and yet it seemed everyone else knew who was going to win as they had all been there and done it before.

Overall it was fun to even be there, and next year we’ll back for an even better shot at it!

We’re finalists for a New Media Award

Wow. I haven’t posted about this until now because I didn’t quite believe it until they sent me the ‘Finalist’ button to put on the site, but whodoicall.eu is a finalist in the Campaign For Change category in the New Statesman New Media awards. We’re up against 2 major websites in the final – The Nag and Big Green Switch – both of which have much bigger budgets and audiences than we do. Quite frankly I’m super content to even have managed to get to the final to be up against sites as big as those. More news from the awards ceremony next week!

Kissinger gets his number (well, not quite)

whodoicall.eu has been online for a week or so, but from today we’re available by telephone too – so we can be that elusive number for Kissinger to call. Well, not quite yet, but we’ll be happy to redirect that number to the first President of the EU if our initiative is a success.

So give us a ring on:

and leave us a message!
