"The nominees for the second annual Streamy Awards were revealed in a live webcast today. The Streamys are awarded to web TV series by the International Academy of Web Television \u2014 they're similar to the Oscars, Emmys or Grammys. \nNominees were selected from 190,000 public submissions spanning 2,000 shows and 130 countries. There are 15 categories with five nominees in each. We've listed them all below, but there are a few items that are particularly notable.\nBoth Crackle's The Bannen Way and Felicia Day's The Guild lead the nominees with seven nominations each; The Bannen Way is nominated for best drama, and The Guild is nominated for best comedy. Easy to Assemble is just behind with six nominations, and Next New Networks's YouTube viral hit Auto-Tune the News is up for four awards.\nThe main Streamy ceremony will take place on April 11 in Hollywood, California; the Craft Awards will be given out on the April 7. We'll be in attendance, so don't change that dial \u2014 or don't switch to another web stream. \nIn the meantime, we'll be covering the world of web television more closely than we have in the past. Each month we work with video analytics company Visible Measures to put out a chart listing the top 10 most popular web series, and we've written up a beginner's guide to made-for-Internet TV with some samples of the best shows. We also have a list of companies that are reinventing TV online.
