Established in 2007 by Premier Christian Media to recognise and reward Christian achievements on the internet, The Original Christian Web and New Media Awards were the first exclusively Christian award ceremony for bloggers and web designers in the UK.
Now in its third year, the awards continue to grow. The awards now feature a new media section, to recognise a wider range of Christian achievements in technology, from iPhone applications to VJ to flash games.
"There are some amazing achievements in new media being made by the Christian community in the UK," Toth said. "The Original Christian Web and New Media Awards isn't just about awarding those achievements, it's also about bringing the organisations involved to a wider Christian audience."
