Short And Tweet: Recapping The 2010 Shorty Awards

Last night, we had the pleasure of attending the 2nd Annual Shorty Awards at TheTimesCenter at The New York Times Tower. We were initially dismayed that we 1) could not immediately find the open bar (it was, fortunately, tucked safely away downstairs, replete with Twitter-inspired drinks made with Maker’s Mark) and that 2), because of a cruel and unforgiving caste system put in place by the event’s organizers, those of us given pale blue “fail whale” pins were to remain trapped, boozy and disoriented, in a large room, left to watch the night’s events on a screen, while those with brown pins were allowed to wander upwards, into the light and within the main room where the stage was located.
