While the Pulitzer Prize announcements yesterday gave nothing to the LA Times and as the LA Weekly noted, this year marked the first time since 2006 that the Weekly didn't win a Pulitzer, effectively ending their current streak (at one), the Webby Awards were announced today and with locals nominated.

Hey guys!
You missed us over at Thrillist -- we got two nominations (Guides/Ratings/Reviews and Lifestyle.)
Thanks!

Doesn't it cost a fair amount of cash to enter the Webby's contest?
Hey Zach, thanks for the shout-out! We're big fans of LAist over at EPIC-FU. :)
