Voting Opens for Second Annual Shorty Awards

Sawhorse Media is tweeting up the second annual Shorty Awards, which recognize “the best people and organizations on Twitter.”

There are 27 official categories and 29 community categories, and Twitter users can vote by sending tweets in the following formats, or using the voting boxes on the Shorty Awards site:

I nominate @TwitterUser for a Shorty Award in #category because…(add reason here).

#shortyawards @username #category (add quick reason here).

According to the official rules, nominations must include reasons or they will not be counted, and Twitter users can vote for as many people or companies as they want, as often as they want.

The winners will be recognized at a ceremony in New York in March, where their acceptance speeches will be limited to–you guessed it–140 characters.
