Sailing

The SS WOW! launched not that long ago, although her faithful editors and long time contributors probably feel like they’ve been sailing out on the Internet Seas for a much longer time. As a new deck hand, I’m fortunate to be on board for this journey, and I’m shaking my head at the thought of writing something fresh at the moment; I’m still smiling at Tracy’s earlier post and jumping up and down like a ship’s monkey at the Web Award!

I think I’ll just add to the glory with a little more detail. In order to win the AAWM Award, websites must have “at least 10 pages of quality information.” This excludes award pages, guest-books, and feedback forms. Plus, websites undergo an evaluation and scoring process where they must earn at least 80 points from judges to receive the Silver award. WOW! met the criteria, even when the waters rose high and rough. I say it’s time to re-christen the ship with a bottle of bubbly! Everyone take out a virtual glass and toast. Hip, hip, hooray! Way to go, WOW!
