Techcrunch recently announced the results of their annual tech awards - 'The Crunchies', with some exciting and original new names being recognised among the more established older companies and services. Once more Facebook has done extremely well, despite some controversy over its continued classification as a 'start-up' (it has won the award for 'best overall start-up' for three years running...)
Anyway click over to the original Techcrunch post for a link to watch the full ceremony live - I won't spoil the other results for you here, apart from one which I think deserves a special mention: Spotify (which won the 'best international' award). A fantastic service of which I'm a big fan, and perhaps even more crucially - possibly the thing that can finally end all the ceaseless online music piracy debates by finally reconciling free music into a legal and financially workable model... we shall see.
Regardless, nice one to Techcrunch for making the whole ceremony available in video for those that couldn't be there - i'm already looking forward to next year :)
