We’re getting kinda excited over here about our upcoming first annual Web awards. For one thing, we’ve managed to snag a 14-year-old rapper who’s become Internet-famous via his catchy depiction of the conflicting feelings a young man must face when his rather attractive mother is ogled on the streets of New York City (Astronomical Kid goes on at 8 p.m.!). For another, funny dude Todd Barry is hosting! And, for yet another, there are some rather awesome awards, to some rather awesome people, to be doled out. Including, but not limited to…
Best Blog Post of the Year
Best Viral Video of the Year
Most Awesome Tweets of the Year
Best Twitterers
Best Sports Blog
Best Food Blog
Best Local Music Site
Best Politics Blog
Best Arts Blog
Best Personal Blogs
Best Sex Blogger
And more, including any number of surprises! There will definitely be complimentary snacks and booze. And there will be us — just a website, standing in front of a bunch of other websites, asking them to love us. Or something like that.
Wanna come? Santos Party House, starting at 7 p.m., tomorrow. Email me for an invite.
