The Mobile Monday Global Peer Awards is taking place at 3GSM, where a distinguished jury (if such a description can be applied to something Carlo and I are involved in) is getting together to vote for the best mobile innovation in the last year. Each MoMo chapter nominates a local company and we get to choose the best. A hard job, but someone has to do it.
At the event, we’ll also be announcing the Carnival of the Mobilists’ Host of the Year, the winner of which will get a sponsored trip (airfare and accommodation) to the Mobile Monday Summit in Helsinki latter in the year and everlasting fame, respect and awe among the Mobilist community. And this is on top of any prize money they may have won from the nice folks at Khosla Ventures for Host of the Month.
Only previous hosts are eligible to vote. Vote by dropping me an email (russell AT mobhappy DOT com) with “Host of the Year” in the title. A list of hosts can be seen here, so you have to be on this list to vote and be eligible to be voted for.
As an organiser, I’m withdrawing myself from the running, so don’t vote for me. However, in the event of a tie, I’ll cast the deciding vote, so be extra nice to me please, you hosts out there.
Anyway, a great prize, so thanks to Mobile Monday. Cast your votes now before you forget.
