there is a totally awesome networking solution at www.muchdifferent.com which would be the winner of networking category here next year. they are just not that known at this time.
and surely long live to unity technologies for it's advancements.
it's somehow sad that the 2008's winner is not even in the list this year and it shows the hardness of this industry.
