I am pleased to read that EBN site won the 'Best of the Web' awards. It clearly shows commitments, dedication and a job well done. It shows the site is helping to shape; transform and challenge the electronics supply chain industry. However, I think its not the time to sit back and relax, more is still required. A big CONGRATULATION to all the Team for a job well done!
A big congratulations to the EBN crew, it is really an awazing work that is being done here. and i think some thanks also goes to the Bloggers who through painstaking research, get great info to the board.

As for the Sponsors,Nothing gets done without them and its good to see that they support EBN's key message here,
"They continue to support EBN because they understand that the supply chain is constantly in flux, and they believe that EBN's editorial content (as well as the tools we plan to launch in the near future) is critical to better understanding business challenges and resolving problematic situations."
Congratulations and here's taking EBN from strength to strength.
Bolaji, just wanted to add to the congratulatory messages: so congratulations to you and the entire EBN team!
I think it's rather amazing what the site has managed to accomplish in such a relatively short period of time. And despite the award, I very much doubt that you'll rest on your laurels.
Looking forward to seeing continued progress, new features, and new tools in the future!
The decision to bring EBN communities (EETimes, EBN Online) online was the right choice. Becoming more interactive, these have become great platforms for professionals all over the word to exchange ideas.

Congratulatios Bolaji for making EBN the Top Online Mgazine within a short span of time. As a moderator for the last four months , I have enjoyed working with EBN community.

Congratulations ... This ia really a big news for EBN. With in an year after the relaunch grabbing such a prestegious award is really a big achievement. It has to go big way in the future to help the companies handle their supply chain more efficiently.
Thanks for sharing the good news. And thanks for sharing your best career advice. From all, this that I quote below is the one that impressed me the most. It shows, in part, who is behind the editorial team at EBN and part of the EBN success.
Many journalists have a key editor behind. The editor who is going to say the words that will stick with you for the rest of your days as a journalist. I can only guess what would that editor say to you today after this accomplishment.
Congratulations!

"Each min award recipient was asked today to comment on one of two questions -- the best or worst career advice they had received or the challenges ahead for their organization. I talked about the best career advice I received early in my profession as a journalist. It came from an editor who brusquely told me to dust myself off after being manhandled by soldiers during a reporting assignment.
I wanted to immediately tell that editor about the nasty experience, but after making sure I was fine, he politely told me to file my story first. "I'll take you to dinner, I'll be happy to commiserate with you, and I'll listen to whatever you have to say -- after the story has been filed, edited and published," he said. "But I need the story first. We don't publish excuses; we publish stories."
The lesson stuck. At EBN, we promise to not give excuses but to do our best to get our readers the information and the tools they need to be better at their jobs."
Hearty Congratulations on the "Best of Web Award"!
It is good to know you are doing your best to get information out to readers in a user friendly format. It is better when the readers see this as tools to improve their work performance, but the best is when you are acknowledged for this great deed.

Peter Drucker famously said "Trying to predict the future is like trying to drive down a country road at night with no lights while looking out the back window." Yet in the razor's-edge world of electronics—with a lean supply chain and just-in-time demands—the need to know the future is vital.
While no one really can accurately predict the future, we can take guidance from another Drucker saying which is the best way to predict the future is to create it.
You've heard the saying "the No. 1 supply chain risk is your people." That hasn't always been the case. But today's complex global supply chain requires a new type of multitalented employee. It's one who understands, finance, marketing, economics, is savvy with technology, graceful with relationships and can think analytically.
Where are these people? Are universities properly preparing the next generation supply chain professionals? How do train your existing workforce for these new, demanding positions?
Brian Fuller, editor-in-chief of EBN, will lead a 60-minute Avnet Velocity panel discussion that will ask and answer these and other questions swirling around today's supply-chain talent challenges.
