From ShortyAwards.com or on Twitter, send a tweet like this: I nominate @Username for a Shorty Award in #category because... [add reason here]. You can nominate anyone who has a Twitter account for a Shorty Award (which recognizes everything they do on other social networks too). Be creative with the reason. A tweet without a reason for the nomination will not be counted. You can vote in one of the Featured Categories or make up your own Community Category by editing the category hashtag. Certain categories such as Real Time Photo of the Year have special rules or different ways of voting. Check each category page for details.
