2.14pm – Wednesday afternoon
The keys on this plastic alphabet are sticky. The seat has no back and the minutes are expensive. The sub audible hum of ten thousand anxious people reverberate through the terminal floor. The timeless neon glow of Gates 31-40, Baggage Claim, Toilets and a Foodcourt burn into my pores. A voice informs me that Mr Nigel Sankey should really hurry along to Gate 36, because all the people already wedged onto the plane are getting seriously annoyed.
In another life our original flight had not suffered the generic ‘engineering difficulties’ and we were already home, but in this life we were destined to spend half a day in Sydney airport at an internet cafe, so still in this life I wrench the keyboard from a neighbouring computer and walk resolutely towards the mannequins at the Virgin Service Desk, a blank look in my eye.
How did it come to this?
7.55am – Earlier that same day
El Presidente and I burst into the breakfast room of the Shangri La hotel in Sydney, where NetGuide are holding the ceremony of their yearly internet awards. The room goes slightly quiet, the dog in the corner ceases playing the piano, and the 100% suited and booted occupants turn to look at these last minute arrivals, one in a vibrant red limited edition RedBubble tee, the other in a faux-Napoleonic military jacket. I wave my cane in the direction of some empty seats and we take our place between the MD of eBay and a man from the Bureau of Meteorology. A general air that we may be ‘chancers’ prevails.
The ceremony begins, and decorum is held in fine corporate silence, broken by an intermittent golf clap as another nervous individual waddles up to claim their glass shard. The 14th prize is for Best New Site, and it is won by a company called Web Menu, but also has a Highly Commended Category, which RedBubble wins. None of the other categories really have second place awards, and so we still appear like we are here for the free breakfast.
The final two awards, however, are a little more prestigious, and they begin with the ‘People’s Choice’ which NetGuide are very proud of, and after building it up to unprecendented heights they announce that RedBubble has conquered it without question. You can hear the room inhale in unison, then vigourously clap. Afterwards everyone was very friendly, coming over to congratulate and talk details, I was even accosted by one man in the gents but I requested he wait until I finish, I think he had something to do with the ceremony. We hand out some t-shirts and greetings cards and even some bubbles, which could be seen floating around the room towards the end of the event.
9.45am
After a suitably cheesy photoshoot, we jump into a taxi and head for the airport and hopefully, a quick flight home.
—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-——
I’d just like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the whole team, to thank all of you, and not just all of you who managed to read this whole post, or even all of you who voted for us, but ALL of you. Because you really do make this site as vibrant as it is, without you we’re nothing, well, not nothing, we’d be a bunch of nerds in a room with some flashy computers and an endless biscuit supply, but I don’t think there’s an award for that.
So thanks and don’t stop now, we’re just getting warmed up.
onetonshadow, and everybody else
Oh and big up to NetGuide for the whole event, bacon and free mousemats, here’s what they have to say about it
Addendum
I’d also like to thank the mighty Anne van Alkemade for stumbling across the competition in the first place and alerting our eager community. May your days be filled with fine wines and tasty cakes.

Well done guys … very well done. You have created such a well-oiled, beautifully simple machine here; the accolades are well-deserved. You have such a terrific uncluttered interface (well, slightly busier than the Firefox home page), it is a pleasure to navigate the site and find all the important stuff very easily – not to mention the products themselves (and I include the uploading facility as a product). I look forward to the next 12 months’ developments.
BTW, bravo for turning up in that schmutter :-D

Thanks to you I have been able to participate in my dream of writing daily, and feeling such unprecedented co-creative juices flow from my fellow RBers right into me,, well truly this is just the beginning,, your vision is part of the evolution of how artists one to another can shine as creators of their own reality,,, whhoowwwo sorry just woke up and was having cosmic dreams ,,,,were you in my dreams? Represented in that moment I flew to the.. What was that name… oh yeah,, the REDZO BUBLIZOT galaxy where fishes make wishes and artists fulfill the dreams in their hearts and realize It is never finished and it is never done..
Yeah,, maybe that was you guys..hmmmmmmmmm THANK YOU!

I never said it before and will never say it again, but it fits.
I Love this site and am really making progress in my art, making sincere connections with other artists and making friends. And someday, I believe I will make money too!
Who could ask for more in a bubble? It’s part of my own personal Bliss Bubble (my world, my life). It’s more than a web site, it’s a community.
I was proud to vote for you in this category and so glad for the person who posted it.
