Jesus Christ, We’ve Won Another Sort Of Award (Sort Of)
Here’s something we weren’t really expecting – hecklerspray’s just won the runner-up prize in the UK2.0 Britain Upgraded awards.
Set up to recognise websites that are ‘truly taking Britain into the world of Web 2.0′, the UK2.0 Britain Upgraded awards have decided that we’re the second-best entertainment website in the country. Which we’re perfectly OK with, since the only thing that beat us was the gigantic, wonderful BBC iPlayer. And coming second only to nationally-broadcast television programmes suits us just fine.
So that’s best British blog in 2007, the 45th most powerful blog in the world in 2008 and second-best entertainment website in the UK (or first best entertainment website that isn’t directly funded by the public, as we prefer to think of it) in 2009. What’ll we get in 2010? Some food, hopefully. We’re so very hungry.
Also, £10 says that no New Kids On The Block fans were on the judging panel.

grats.
only in britain could such cynicism be champion.
Not bad for something it seems like you started as part of a 12-step anger management programme.
Shame they got your name wrong.
Yea for hecklerspray! I love you guys! I’m an American but I love British humor and I love hecklerspray! Also good to hear about your other awards! Keep up the great work of making me laugh every single day.
Hurrah!
I was also going to say, more blasphemy please. It lends a certain charm, don’t you think?
Fucking hell, if this piece of shit website got second place then the future of Britain online is doomed.
DOOMED!
Only kidding
Is he?
