Last night was special. When we wrote months ago about web television growing up this year we were serious. This isn’t just a novelty or sideshow to real entertainment. Web television is entertainment.
Last night was its coming out party.
The stars of web television turned out strong including Neil Patrick Harris, Joss Whedon, Felicia Day, Taryn Southern, David Faustino, Zoe Bell, Alex Albrecht, Zadi Diaz, Jessica Rose, Illeana Douglas, Rosario Dawson, iJustine, Amber Lee Ettinger, Shira Lazar, Leah D’Emilio, The Sklar Brothers, Jeff MacPherson, Lisa Kudrow and many more. (For photos of the event check out Kodak’s Flickr stream, Wire Image, and official photography from the Bui Brothers.)
For the thousands of people who tuned in to the live stream of the show, they may not have realized they were a part of history, watching the first ever professionally produced awards show live streamed to the internet.
Viewers from all over the world watched, without any distribution restrictions, and shared the play-by-play with constant flow of tweets and updates. You all broke the news in real time, the way it should be. Here is the full list of Streamy Award winners:The Official Winners of the 1st Annual Streamy Awards – March 28, 2009
