Jimmy Fallon, Trent Reznor among Webby winners
Jimmy Fallon's late-night show hasn't been on the air three months, but he's already got an award. The comedian was chosen as person of the year by the annual Webby awards for being "one of the most ardent online evangelists."

The 13th annual Webbys were announced Tuesday. A special achievement award was also given to Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor, who released his 2008 album, "The Slip," as a free download.

Seth MacFarlane, the "Family Guy" creator, was honored as film and video person of the year for his Web franchise "Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy."

National Public Radio led winners with seven awards, including wins for its music division, mobile news and podcasts. The New York Times' online unit _ last year's Webby leader _ earned six awards, the same total that NBC.com also received.

Twitter, the fast-growing microblogging site, won the Webby for breakout of the year.

I broke down and have a Twitter account - it's pretty cool (so far).

2. Reznor should have got a webby for
remix.nin.com

You can download all the separate tracks of his songs, and remix them, or download the complete song as is played by in native Garageband.

That's pretty damn cool.
