The judging of the Society for News Design's annual competition begins today in Syracuse. The SND website promises "live updates all weekend," so check that out if you're so inclined.

*Update: They're up and running and even announcing winners. There's also photos, videos and even blogs. Also a web cam (which won't work for me). Fine work by the SND International Web Desk. (Note to the SNDIWD since you don't have an e-mail address: Your blogs' RSS feeds are farked! Something with that second all-caps SNDJUDGING in the addresses.) Looks like most of the bugs are ironed out. Chapeau!
