The soon-to-be-coveted FlyerTalkie (?) is being designed as we speak

As to categories, there are about a million ways to slice and dice; we chose to keep it as simple as possible, with three industries in three geographic regions. If we tried to keep it absolutely apples-to-apples we'd end up with 500 awards with 3 contenders apiece and no consensus about who is really the best. Since the companies themselves compete for customers within geo regions, that's how we'll judge them.
