It was a privilege and an education to be part of the judging panel for the 2011 Social Buzz Awards.

Reading, discussing and interrogating the papers with a very high calibre panel of fellow judges was a real eye-opener.

The results will be announced at a dinner at Wembley Stadium on 1st December. (Book now!).

Meanwhile here are some general, non-confidential observations arising from the judging process. If the award entries are a reliable indicator, what do they suggest for the near future of social media? And what suggestions can I make for writers of future Social Buzz papers?

These are personal views, not necessarily those of the panel as a whole.
