Everything Channel, a division of UBM, today announced that it was honored with two silver Eddie awards for editorial excellence at the FOLIO: Show last week in Chicago. The Eddie Awards are open to consumer, B2B, associations and online magazines where each magazine is evaluated against its own mission statement, the quality of their content and how the overall design and production supports their mission.

Everything Channel was honored in the B2B, Technology/Computing/Telecom, Full Issue category for VARBusiness' May 2008 issue. This issue featured the VARBusiness 500 which details the leading revenue producers among technology integrators and technology Solution Provider organizations in North America and is based on gross worldwide revenue of hardware and software sales, as well as earnings from professional and managed information technology services.

In addition, Everything Channel was honored in the Best Online Tool category for its ChannelWeb.com Network. ChannelWeb.com, the online source for CRN and VARBusiness, delivers breaking news, in-depth analysis, workflow tools, instructional video and NetSeminars, as well as a community of Channel events, education, software and research.

"We are honored to be recognized by FOLIO: with these awards; they validate that we have achieved our editorial mission. They also showcase the dedication of our editorial team to provide the Solution Provider community with the critical information they need for business success," said Kate Spellman, SVP Strategic Marketing and Business Development, Everything Channel.

The Eddie and Ozzie Awards recognize excellence in magazine editorial and design. This year's competition drew more than 2,800 entries and more than 100 expert judges spent weeks evaluating the entries and selecting the winners.

Earlier this month, Everything Channel was honored by min Magazine with an Integrated Marketing Award in the Online Event category for its November 2007 Virtual Trade Show.
