Last Thursday the internet in Vancouver got hit with a tidal wave of blog posts, tweets and Facebook posts about this year’s Best Of Vancouver! Hundreds of businesses and organizations celebrated the announcement that they were winners and runners up in The Georgia Straight’s annual issue dedicated to all things worth celebrating. The Best Of issue is available on newsstands now and I am super proud to announce that for 3 years running we’ve been voted into the top 3 in the BEST LOCAL BLOG category! Also, 2 years running we’ve been locked in as Vancouver’s “3RD BEST TWITTERER” (for our @VIAwesome account that you should be FOLLOWING!).

I would like to send a HUGE thank you out to all of our editors and contributors who make us a top notch hyper-local resource, to all of our readers and supporters, to those who voted for us and, of course, to the kind folks at the Georgia Straight who continue to spearhead the largest non-political ballot in the city year after year! See all of the winners by picking up a copy on the street or clicking HERE.
