The Shorty Awards honor the best of social media, recognizing the people and organizations producing real-time short form content on across Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, YouTube, Foursquare, and the rest of the social Web.
Every year, millions of people visit the Shorty Awards site to tweet nominations for their favorite social media content creators. All those tweets culminate in a highly anticipated awards ceremony that celebrates the winners in dozens of featured categories, as well as thousands of crowd-sourced community ones.
So in another words, they give awards to the best tweeters. To vote for The Sums,
VOTE HERE or simply tweet this:
Code: Select all
I nominate @Sum41 for a Shorty Award in #band because... [must add reason here].
or a shorter one:
Code: Select all
#shortyawards @Sum41 #band [must add reason here].

Dude! The reason I got my Twitter account was Sum 41. That's not enough for an interest for you?

If you want to vote, just make an account to nominate them. Maybe afterwards since the account is there you will use it eventually.

Not sure if there's a limit, but more than once at least.
Why not voting for @Sum41_TNS for the #fansite category while you're at it!

I've voted twice for this now and it seems like you can vote more than just once without any limit
