Dude, Where's My Award?!

Daniela Hinrichs on 10.05.2006 at 19:42 h

Well actually "our" award, but the title was too good to pass up!

It´s hilarious. When Lars came back from Paris this morning he didn´t bring with him anything other than a good story: Some other Red Herring winner must have taken our award home Red Herring told us.

We´re laughing tears here, but hey our showcase looks empty and sad now.

If anybody have seen our award or is reading this: Keep it!

So, we may not have one the Red Herring Award, but because we are nice people here, we're going to give away a one year membership to openBC for one lucky reader of openBLOG.

All you have is guess, "who run away with our red herring"?

I'll take a wild jab at the award question: Linkedin :)

Daniella-
I think there were mutliple categories and winners for the RH 100 Europe so you have to be more specific about which category before I can give you a winner.

naaahhh, be creative ;-)

Hmm... creative? I could almost assume that's a hint... but then most of those companies in the top 100 were pretty creative so I'll just take a wild guess.

Fon? Could it have been Martin Varsavsky sneaking off with the prize? I'd check all Fonero's at the door, just in case. :-D

Wild guess: Tridion - they also speak German (somehow, they're really Dutch)

The winner is OpenBC Club Finland.

@Lars, I will see Martin today and twist his arm to tell me if he has a clue ;-)

You keep checking the doors, the Foneros are everywhere.

@all: I was wondering if there wasn´t a sign (something like: this-is-the-red-herring-for-openbc-take-your-hands-off-just-watch) sticking on the award?!
