Colbert is the MAN!
Stephen Colbert is the Web person of the year, as voted by the judges of the 12th annual Webby Awards (www.webbyawards.com/).
From the Webby Awards site:
Stephen Colbert will be honored for the innovative way he has used the Internet to interact with fans of The Colbert Report - from Google bombing to make him the top search result for "greatest living American" to challenging the "truthiness" of Wikipedia. In his presidential campaign, the "One Million Strong for Stephen T. Colbert" Facebook group attracted more than 78 members per minute in its first week, while his supporters have raised more than $250,000 for the education charity DonorsChoose.org.
I'll be writing more about Webby Award winners in my column next week.
