The Crunchies: blog-sponsored, reader-approved award show for top startups
November 6, 2007 | Eric Eldon
Together with blogs GigaOm, Read/Write Web and host Techcrunch, VentureBeat is putting on the Crunchies, an end-of-the-year awards ceremony honoring the top web startups that you decide on.
Here’s how it works. We’ll be launching the formal nominations process on the Website over the next few weeks. After we’ve received nominations, we’ll have everyone vote on their favorite nominees.
The winners will be announced at an awards presentation in San Francisco, exact date and venue to be announced.
More details to come.
Eric currently covers digital media technology and business, especially what's happening on social networks and their platforms. He writes and edits stories about lots of other stuff, too. He started at VentureBeat in the spring of 2007, half a year or so after Matt Marshall left his reporting job at the San Jose Mercury News to found the site. Eric previously cofounded a now-failed startup called Writewith, that was building editorial software for newspapers and other groups of writers.
