This is the 5thh year we are running this annual online event. The Readers Awards was created in 2001 to commend on the best of the year. Every year, we run a nomination whereby users can submit the name of the product to be considered for the respective award.
Our sector leaders will likewise submit a list of products that they think is deserves an award. This will usually last for 2 weeks.
The actual poll begins and users from all around the world will get to cast their votes. At the end of the 3 weeks, the results are announced on OCWORKBENCH.
This year, we consolidated some awards and put them into one. For example, we do away with AMD and Intel but put them together in the race. Some of the awards were also merged or moved into different categories.
Below are the categories. We invite all readers to nominate their choices. After the 2 weeks, we will have an open voting for the top 3 of each category.
