comments:
"Well-written, compelling and there was something
special that set it apart from the rest. The feature
is told in first-person narrative (which is hard to
pull off regardless of the publication), yet the
author keeps the proper tone throughout. The facts are
presented in an interesting and well-organized manner
without bogging down the article or challenging the
tone. One of the best features in this style that I
have ever read."

CRN
No Easy Street

comments:
"Instead of a routine 'I had to write a story about
Katrina and make it shoehorn into my industry,' the
author took a novel approach and attacked the story
angle with care. This in-depth look at a specific
business in New Orleans that was nearly destroyed by
Katrina had a relevant human interest approach that
fit the industry (computers) but contained all of the
essential elements of a great feature."
"The writing is top-notch.
The lead is excellent and paints the mood for the
story, and the conclusion returns to the lead in an
elegant and insightful manner. This is how disaster
reporting should be. Overall, a wonderful example on
how to write a feature with compassion and empathy
that is entertaining without stooping to melodramatic
schlock."

CIO

Judging
comments:
"The author took a tough and touchy subject
relevant to the industry and pulled together an
interesting and compelling article ... Research was
thorough and the author interviewed a good
cross-section of CIOs and asked some tough questions.
Layout was very clean and photos captured the correct
tone ... Amazing lead and good, solid examples from
interviewees in the target audience."
"A topical
hot-button subject handled with skill and tact. This
article keeps it's focus on it's readers' business
needs without shying away from the personal costs of
the subject's experience."
