NewYorkology wins a 'silver' Lowell Thomas award

NewYorkology is delighted to announce it's been named the "silver" award winner (read: the second-best) Internet publication at this year's Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism awards.

First place went to LonelyPlanet.com and third went to Frommers.com.

This is the third consecutive year NewYorkology has received a "bronze" or "silver" in the competition run by the Society of American Travel Writers Foundation and judged by the Missouri School of Journalism faculty.

The judges' notes were especially sweet:

This Web site focuses on one small swatch of the earth, New York City, and dissects its with a sharp eye. NewYorkology plays on the Web’s strengths — the ability to deliver timely information quickly and link to other resources — and presents information to travelers in a chatty tone. Visitors heading for the Big Apple will want to make this their first stop.
