I hope that the new award does takes shape quickly so that they provide all the information to the teams and to potential evaluators in a timely fashion. Realizing that it is necessary to stay current with technology's advancements, I think it will place a lot more work on the evaluators and they need to be prepared.

It will be a worthy award but I think I'll put my hand down as an evaluator for the award in the upcoming season. More people who work with and stay current with the technological advancements in these areas will need to step up.

I'm a little nervous about the 'New Media' Award only due to the uncertainty. On my team we work very hard on our website and social media but I'm unsure what else would fall under a team's 'media presence'? I guess I'd feel reassured with more details but I have a feeling we might not get those in till the 2013 awards manual released much later on.
