Schoolhouse in Ars Design Awards, on MacAppStorm

Ars Technica, the wonderful tech website, saw the sadness in many a Mac developer's eyes when Apple decided to restrict the Apple Design Awards to iPhone and iPad apps only. As such, Ars Technica decided to hold a little awarding of their own.

In the form of the Ars Design Awards for Mac OS X.

The coolest part of this, for me? Schoolhouse is nominated in the "Best Student-Created Application" category. I'm very humbled and excited. It's such a good feeling to see something you've created respected enough to attain a place in the nominations. Among the other candidates are, of course, some of the best Mac apps out today, including Transmit, Pixelmator and Dropbox.

This should be a fun and welcomed replacement for our development community's efforts.

Thanks, Ars Technica!

Update: It's also come to my attention that Schoolhouse is featured on MacAppStorm today in their 20 Time-saving Mac Apps for Teachers. More awesomeness than I expected.

Update: I WON!
