The Apple Design Awards is the greatest casualty of the new WWDC format.

It was the most exciting evening of the week. A room packed with developers, each of which thought their app had a chance to win, and equally excited to see which of their peers would win.

And when John Geleynse & Shaan Pruden called you up, it was magic. You felt the love in the room, held a cube, and saw your hard work on screen.

Now it's basically a press release. The work is still awesome, the recognition is not.
