Wow. We honestly didn't prepare a speech for this event...
A few weeks back, Flock was humbled to have been nominated amongst such esteemed heavyweights as Facebook, Bebo, Ning and ChangeEverything.ca for the annual Webby Awards in the Social Networking category. Late last night, we were alerted that Flock won the Webby Award for this incredibly competitive category.  For a 40 person company, filled with passionate individuals who have been working late nights and straight through weekends, this is a very pleasant, unexpected, and flattering surprise!
This year marked the 12th annual Webby Awards ceremony. They received over 10,000 nominations from 60+ countries worldwide. The Webbys have long been recognized as a very special acknowledgement of the companies that are leading in key areas of excellence and innovation. Past Webby Award winners have included: Amazon.com, eBay, Yahoo!, iTunes, Google, NPR, Salon Magazine, Evite, Meetup, Wikipedia, Flickr, PBS, and The Onion.
We are delighted about receiving this prestigious award, and would also like to congratulate Facebook for winning the People's Voice award within the same category. We're very close with the good folks over at Facebook and always appreciate what good partners they have been to Flock.
As always, we continue to be grateful to the millions of users around the world who have downloaded Flock, and to those that continue to champion Flock as a fun, fresh and innovative alternative to conventional browsers.
Thanks to the Judges of the Webby Awards, as well as our own Community of Flockstars for making the first third of 2008 a wild success.
-Cheers!

Congratulations! I knew you guys would win. Flock Rocks! :D
Really. Congratulations in abundance! I love Flock and am almost at the point of making it my default browser. Heretofore I've used Opera for lots of reasons. But that is really changing fast as every time I go to the net now I see myself looking at the 'Opera' icon in my sidebar and then...clicking on Flock! You sure deserve this award and I look forward to the next 'update' with glee and, maybe, one day - some new skins! ;) Way to go Flock! Flock is a killer client for sure...
Let me add my congratulations and point out the award shouldn't have been a surprise. Don't you know how fantastic flock is? ;)
Way to go!!!!! Glad to see a browser take this award.
Wow! This gives all of us flock users a mandate to spread the word! hehehe. Nice work, nice product.
WOW, I cannot believe it. 10,000 nominations; That is too many, and only one winner. That is incredible.
But I am not surprise to see Flock winning; As Flock 100% deserve it :)
After winning the "Web Award at SXSW Conference", I see this second great achievement.

I was very happy with netscape navigator until they were no longer supported. Now that Flock has become my default browser,I can say that my surfing experience has never been easier,nor more pleasurable! TY
So many people I have mention Flock is very Good even under construction and now I can say, "look they won the 2008 Webby Award". I knew you guys could feel what people want in a browser. Thx for your love to all of us lovers of Flock.
God Bless Flock and its members and those who are missing.
IT is an honor to say that my FLOCKING has been true blue for over two years and every time I can do I highlight, share or show it off to friends online and through blog..can always pick the WINNERS.
Kudos, for being cast into a most favorable light.
