The Diamond Award is awarded to
one Gold Award winner from the previous year which, in my judgment, best
demonstrates the spirit and purpose of the Internet Beacon Awards.
Winners receive a screenshot, a link to their site, and a limited-edition
print of "The Beacon Light," the painting
by artist Jan Smith McLaughlin which serves as the logo of the Internet Beacon. (Award

The Keeper
Of The Light Award is the highest honor
presented by the Internet Beacon Awards.
It is presented to
individuals, not to web sites. The
recipients are those rare people we meet on
occasion -- people who strive every day to
make the Internet a better place, and to
unselfishly help everyone that they
encounter. Typically, they ask for
little or nothing in return. These
remarkable people make the world a much better
place, not because they believe it will
make them rich, but because they believe
it's the right thing to do. Every day,
they display the spirit of the Internet
Beacon, showing that one person can
make a difference. If you see this
award on a web site, look around -- you are
in the presence of someone very special.
