RA takes home a Webby

"The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny"
Yes, I know Abba is not that fun nowadays, but I dedicated its track to RA.

By far the best electronic music related website in the world, RA is rewarded this year with a Webby. I've voted them (of course) and never thought, not even for one second, that they won't be the winners. So congratulations guys and keep it up!
Here's RA's way of thanking all of you. :)


Thanks to your votes, RA has won a People's Voice trophy in this year's Webby Awards.
The Webbys are the Internet version of the Grammys or the Oscars, so it's a real honour to be nominated, let alone take away a prize. In 2008 the Webbys received 10,000 entries from over 60 countries, of which five were nominated in each category. Resident Advisor managed to beat the competition and take away the People's Voice trophy in the music category, edging out big boys such as BBC Radio 1 and Pink Floyd.
All that's left to do now is think of an acceptance speech, which in the Webby tradition is limited to five words. Now you've voted, the only thing left to do is make some suggestions - at the moment all we can think of is "We're gushing like Halle Berry" and "Nobody listens to techno, huh?"
