Tuesday is the 2007 (UK) IT Security Journalist of the Year awards ceremony, and I seem to be up for the gong in 4 out of the 6 categories including the overall title which I was lucky enough to win last year.
I can't see me winning it again, to be honest, but it is free posh nosh in a very nice restaurant in London so I will not be complaining whatever. You never know, I might pick up one of the smaller awards such as 'Best Security News Story' or 'Best Security Feature' which will be nice enough as they come with a £500 ($1000) cash bonus
Anyway, being a superstitious soul, wish me luck why dontcha?

Doesn't count, this years awards are based on work published last year and had, in fact, already been judged and decided a couple of months ago.
Still, puts me in good stead for next year, what with breaking both the UK/India visa story and the TomTom SatNav virus ones - and both here on DaniWeb of course. So if I do win for either of them in the 2008 awards, DaniWeb will pick up on the credit, in the press releases etc.
Actually, it might even feature this year as I do not yet known which of my news stories has been shortlisted in the 'security news reporting' category, and a bunch of DaniWeb/Inside Edge ones were in contention...
