Harry Potter fan fiction and art site FictionAlley
has been nominated for a prestigious "Best Community" Webby Award in the eighth annual event, to be held May 12.
"The members of Team FictionAlley are beyond thrilled by the nomination," said Heidi Tandy, president of FAWC, Inc., the non-profit organization that operates the site. "But we really feel that the nod belongs to all the authors, reviewers and Parkies - they are the community behind FA."
Other sites in the "Best Community" category include Friendster and the ever-popular LiveJournal.
The awards have been called "the online Oscars" by Time magazine, and puts FA in very good company. Google, BBC News and Apple's iTunes are all nominated in other categories.

I've not really any experience with FictionAlley, the only sites I hang around in are HPANA and on rare occasions Mugglenet and Leaky Cauldron.
But hey, cool for them, although I think HPANA is the best fansite.

I really enjoy visiting Fiction Alley. The sheer volume of fan fiction is incredible; there's just so much to choose from. The people who frequent the Fiction Alley Park are very friendly, and they assist the writers and are just generally helpful. The site itself is organized in such a way that it is very easy to find what you're looking for quickly.
Of course, I also enjoy HPANA a lot too.

Well, it seems like they are up to win an award. But I am unsure on what they exactly win it for. I am not sure what the community category stands for.

Congatulations to them, but why can't HPANA win, if anyone deserves an award they do. HPANA deserves to win a goint gold statue of some sort, this place is trully the best.
