Facebook is such a good time-wasting site that we wonder why it hasn’t ever got an award for best time waster at some sort of new media awards event. OH WAIT, it just has got an award for best time waster! At a real ceremony! That a bunch of slebs turned up to!
Dom Joly, who doesn’t seem to be doing very much (maybe he’s too busy on Facebook) awarded the website with its best time waster accolade at the very first Carphone Warehouse Appy awards last night. But that wasn’t all - a very pregnant and very gorgeous Jodie Kidd presented Adobe Photoshop with the best photography award. And Peaches Geldof turned up to present eBay Fashion with the best fashion prize. Reggie Yates was there to give Spotify the best music award, James Cracknell gave Sky Sports News the best sport award, and the whole thing was hosted by Top Gear’s Richard Hammond and Total Wipeout’s Amanda Byram.
The nominees were selected by Carphone Warehouse employees and voted for by the general public over the past six weeks. Other winners include Skype for best money saver and Angry Birds for best game.
