On Saturday May 7th, the attendees of J and Beyond 2011 all gathered in the auditorium of Rolduc Conference centre.
The reason was to witness the awards ceremony for this year's J.O.S.C.A.R.S - the Joomla Open Source Creative Artistic Recognition Awards.
The ceremony was led by Sir Brian Teeman (dressed as a knight) and Victor Drover. They were assisted by members of the crowd to present the awards to each winner.
I'm really happy to announce that I won the award for Blog Web Site of the Year for this blog.
As I said from the stage: I wouldn't have gotten the award if it wasn't for all my readers and people sharing, tweeting and commenting on my blog. It's all about the community.
Thank you all for voting and supporting my efforts!
