Myself and a few other North West Digital Communities (NWDC) members have been invited to the Big Chip Awards in Manchester by Manchester Digital Development Agency (MDDA). It’s like the oscars but for the Digital Media and IT Industry outside of London and is certainly the place to be seen. It should be a good night, Code Computerlove have 3 projects shortlisted in the same category so there’s a possibility of a win.

This will be my second awards event after last years FRESH:digital Awards 2007 which I really enjoyed and not just because I won Freshest Digital Young Professional, but because it’s good to see some of the fantastic work that’s produced and see the people involved rewarded for their hard work.

A big hug goes out to the MDDA for invite. I’m looking forward to meeting some new faces and putting faces to people I’ve spoken to via mailing lists like GeekUp but have yet to meet. If your attending and we’ve not met do say hello.
