CitizenShift official honoree at the Webby Awards

By Heri Apr 23rd 2008 in Design

CITIZENShift, an open platform by the National Film Board where all citizens are invited to contribute to a social topic, from blog posts, videos to podcasts, was distinguished as an official honoree in the activism category.

The Webby Awards are annual awards, where members of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences choose the best of the web. They proclaim themselves as the equivalent of the Oscars for multimedia works.

CITIZENShift went through an overhaul at the end of last year, transforming itself from a group blog into a full-fledge open social platform. This selection is in a way a direct acknowledgement of the work done. Congratulations!
