Manic weeks are the best

By the time CRN lands on your desks, the voting for the 2009 Awards will have closed and we begin checking every single vote.

Yirrell: Already knows the winners...

By the end of the week I will actually know who the 2009 Awards winners are.
Unfortunately no amount of bribery will make me reveal this until the night itself on 19 November.

As I have said on numerous occasions ­ and despite a few naysayers out there ­ the awards have been more difficult than ever to judge this year because of the high standard of entries.

Those of you lucky enough to win will really have something to crow about because the votes will have been examined with a fine-toothed comb.

For those that do not win the award itself, landing a Judges Commended badge is also an achievement, and the judges will be meeting to decide those winners this week.

On top of all that, it is the week of our Channel Conference and I am very excited by the great line-up of speakers we have on Tuesday ­ it should be a great day and hopefully one filled with discussion and debate.

So it is quite a manic week ahead for us here at CRN, but one I am looking forward to very much.
