Winners of the Network2 "How to Watch Internet TV" Contest Announced:
Special thanks to everyone who entered our contest. I was overwhelmed by the creativity and quality of the submissions we received. It made judging all the more of a challenge to me. While I was prepared to share US$40,000 for the top three prizes, in the end I decided to give out an additional US$10,000 to ten entries which qualified as "Honorable Mentions."
First Place and US$ 25,000 - Mike Ambs for: Friend #1 & #2:
Third Place and US$ 5,000 - Jay Moonah.
Honorable mentions and US$ 1,000 go to:
- g14
- Galacticast
- Josh Leo's Vlog
- Rabbit Bites
- Something to be Desired
- The Hippy Gourmet
- Vlognomad
- Adam Swan
- Emina Sonnad
- Jim Long
(We will be in touch with everyone about the prizes.)
Thank you to everyone. It meant a lot to me to see all the wonderful submissions, and I truly believe that anything that brings awareness of Internet TV helps us all.
I look forward to announcing our next contest in the near future.

Thank you so much! I can't believe I didn't just pass right out on stage - I'm still in shock... I think I will be for quite some time. It was an amazing experience.

Jeff, thanks so much for having this contest. I'm not kidding when I say the first thing I'm going to do is fix our broken plumbing. :-)
Really awesome that you added honorable mentions to reward all that talent and hard work.
