Is it really the holiday already? Not quite - we've still got to announce the Social Networking Awards 2006! With thousands of votes cast, the People's Choice attracted a much bigger response than anyone expected. Meanwhile, we agonized over which companies to pick as Mashable's choices (the "Judge's Choice").

For those who are interested, our picks were made by Mashable, Mashable Labs and Advantage Consulting Services, the team that oversees social network consulting for our clients, in addition to recommending the best partners and white label social networks. The ACS team also has a background in web development (they were behind the stats service CrazyEgg, for instance), but they don't have any competing services in the social networking space. Our criteria were: Growth and Momentum; Design and Usability; Uniqueness/Innovation. There are two winners in each category, followed by the sites that are "Hot for 2007″ - a combination of your votes and our picks.

A fairly thorough list of social networking web sites. Awards given in a half dozen or so categories (includes all the nominees). No mention of Newsvine.
