Smiley Award: Call for Nominations
Nominations are due on January 31, 2009, for the second annual Smiley Award for innovation in technology-assisted person-to-person communication. Details can be found at http://www.cs.cmu.edu/smiley/sa.html.
I think this is such a fun award! It was established to commemorate the invention of the smiley :-) by Scott Fahlman almost 27 years ago. Our friends at Yahoo! generously provided prize money last year, and I am very pleased that they have stepped up to do this again this year. Like last year, we’re planning to throw a big party (with smiley cookies) to celebrate the winners. So, please get your nominations in!
