Oxford awards for movers and shapers of the Internet

Internet innovators who have led the way are to be recognised by Oxford University in a special awards ceremony. The Oxford Internet Institute (OII) is inviting nominations from the public for the 'OII Internet and Society Awards', being held as part of the 10th anniversary celebrations of its foundation. There are four separate categories: best UK Internet journalist; best UK Internet politician; best UK Internet non-profit NGO; and best UK Internet public body. Nominations need to be in by 15 April 2011. The winners will be invited to collect their trophies at a special ceremony in September 2011, which will be attended by big names from the Internet world. They include Google evangelist 'Vint' Cerf and David Clark of MIT, both regarded as among the leading forefathers of the Internet. The OII will also present its own lifetime awards, honouring individuals who it judges to have played a uniquely significant and long-lasting role in shaping the Internet.
