The great Web 2.0 guilty-pleasure turned national pass-time that is Twitter never runs out of ways to keep us distracted. But that’s a good thing. In this dump of an economy, most of you are already unemployed so you need some way to pass the time until the debt collectors catch up with you.
The latest egregious link-bait effort is the Shorty Awards, a way to recognize and reward 140 character shameless self-promoters content creators who can leverage their social network (or for those on the short bus, just bribe) to get enough @ votes.
Honestly, I didn’t want to cover the Shorty Awards except our favorite photographer Wm. Marc Salsberry (@wmmarc) is close to clinching the photography category but still need a push over the edge.
Voting ends Friday so please head on over to the Shorty site and show your support for lala and Marc today.
