HERE AT THE multi-award winning TheJournal.ie we’re a modest bunch but now and again we like to let our readers know that we’re being recognised for our work and last night we earned more recognition… three times.

We’re delighted to report that we took home the Eircom Spider awards for best News, best Digital Editor and the overall Grand Prix at a glitzy ceremony held at the National Convention Centre in Dublin.

The Eircom Spiders are an annual event, honouring Irish individuals and organisations for their outstanding achievements online and celebrating the successes of the Irish internet and digital media.

Last night’s ceremony was presented by Dara Ó Briain, himself a TheJournal.ie reader now and again.

Here’s a full round-up of the winners in their glad rags and with their golden spiders. Well done all!
