Default Golden Spider Confusion...

Hi,

As a matter of interest and to save my sanity, do you think Irish Mortgage Brokers | Mortgage Brokers Dublin, 100% Mortgage should be in the short list for Best Financial Website and Home - Blue Sky Mortgages - Mortgages Ireland - Mortgage Broker - Mortgage Calculator not be? Am I being petty and biased towards my own work?

Also, Professional Development Limited Business Training Courses made it in front of Blue Sky in the Best Professional Services website? Am I missing something here or once again being blinded by my own work?

I know the usual comments are going to come out about the GS's but I'm actually looking for some logical reason that these sites might be better than the Blue Sky one, either from a design, coding, functionality, content point of view!!! Once again... am I biased towards my own work or is it not up to scratch against others in those categories?

I just really thought Blue Sky could have / should have been in with a shot!

Thanks, Dave

p.s. not bitter (as I have other sites in different category), just confused!

p.p.s. My apologies to both examples sites that were nominated if you are reading this. I personally didn't think they were as good - design wise or coding - and wanted a second opinion!!!

It's hard to know what you're expecting as a logic answer. If you want to know why one site made it to the shortlist and a more deserving one didn't - it's because the people who determine the shortlist don't know what they're doing. People from 'Business and Finance magazine' don't understand the Web.

what has that got to do with anything ? this is the GS we're talking about here

Think I saw it on another thread but ... anyone up for setting up our own Awards / Webmaster Beers .... (it would take a bit of work) but we all tend to complain a lot about the awards and in the end nothing much really happens
