I turn the mic over to Bob Ambrogi:

And the Webby Nominees Are ...

Voting is underway for the 12th annual  Webby Awards, honoring excellence in Web sites in more than 100 categories -- among them, law. Called by The New York Times the "Oscars of the Internet," the awards are presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, a 550-member group that includes Internet innovator Vinton Cerf, Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington, "Simpsons" creator Matt Groening and media mogul Harvey Weinstein. Through its People's Voice Awards, the Webbys also allow voting by the Web community at large.

Which is where you come in. In the law category, five sites are nominated. You can vote for your favorite by filling out the ballot at the People's Voice site. (You will need to register.) The nominees for best law site are:

• Shearman & Sterling recruiting.
• ABA Journal.
• Jurist.
• LawHelp.
• OUT-LAW.COM.

While you're there, check out and vote for your favorite sites in other categories. At least one other law-related site you will find nominated, in the category Charitable Organizations, is the  Innocence Project.
