Who's taking home the coveted golden computer trophies? <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/2010-urlies/">Head on over to the winners page</a> to see the full list.<br />
<br />
In addition to the people's choice award, your Urlbot editors also selected (and fought over) the winners of<em> our </em>hearts. Sometimes our favorite picks matched with the voters, but in <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/best-new-single-topic-blog-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">some</a> <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/breakout-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">categories</a>, we were whole-heartedly torn in a different direction.<br />
<br />
Congratulations to all the people's and editors' choice winners and to all the nominees. Thank you for making our internet the best it could be this year, and here's hoping for an equally LOLworthy 2011.<br />

<br />
Another year has come and gone and it is time again to reflect on all the fine internet that has flown across our computer screens throughout 2010.<br />
<br />
Welcome to the Third Annual Urlies, where we recap the year in internet culture -- from <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/meme-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">memes</a> to <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/video-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">videos</a> to <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/best-new-single-topic-blog-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">websites</a>, and heck, <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/12/08/justin-bieber-internet-thing-of-the-year-2010-urlies/">Justin Bieber</a> even got his very own category this year.<br />
<br />
Before we announce our picks for the best of the web in 2010, we want you, Internet, to tell us who or what made your web surfing worthwhile this year. Who should take home the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Urlesque?v=photos#!/photo.php?fbid=202785555681&amp;set=a.182470285681.127980.27598255681&amp;theater">coveted golden computer</a>? We want to know.<br />
<br />
<strike>The polls are now open, in all 10 categories, and you can vote as many times as you'd like through <em><strong>Wednesday, December 15th at Midnight ET</strong></em>. The people's and editors' winners will be announced shortly thereafter. Think we overlooked a worthy nominee? This year we've added a new option -- write-in votes. Stuff that ballot box. (But trust us, it was quite a battle at Urlesque HQ for which nominees made the final cut.)</strike><br />
<br />
Voting is now closed. Check back tomorrow for the announcement of the people's choice and editor picks in all categories.<br />

While (I assume) the sanitary thing to do is to immediately discard the decomposing fruits and vegetables, have you ever been tempted to keep the spoils around to see exactly what happens? Webiocosm offers a sneak peak into the decomposition process with the following time-lapse video that features what happens to uneaten fruits and vegetables over a 74 day span.<br />

When I heard about <a href="http://www.barbie.com/videogirl/">Barbie Video Girl</a>, I was ecstatic. And she's finally here!<br />
<br />
Barbie Video Girl (pictured left) is a wonderful mash up between a video camera and a Barbie doll. She has a camera lens within a necklace on her chest and a color LCD screen on her back that shoots and plays back video footage in real time. Not only can girls film their world from Barbie's perspective, but there is also <a href="http://www.barbie.com/videogirl/">downloadable editing software</a> available for aspiring wee videographers. <br />
<br />
On one hand, I'm a little bummed that something like this didn't exist when I was young, but on the other, I'm extremely relieved as the internet would be FULL with terrible videos of me singing, dancing and making music videos for songs like 'Cheeseburger in Paradise' in my backyard (really happened). You can be assured that your faithful Urlbots will be scanning the internetosphere for awesome videos shot by children everywhere.<br />
<br />
Starting today, Video Girl will be embarking on a scavenger hunt in select cities (SF, LA, Chicago, NYC) where followers can possibly pick up their own Barbie Video Girl dolls. Full details on how to win below. <br />
<br />
Don't live in one of those 4 cities? YOU'RE IN LUCK! <strong>Mattel has given Urlesque TWO Barbie Video Girl dolls to giveaway to lucky readers</strong>. So be sure to check back later in the week for your chance to win your very own Video Girl. She's seriously the coolest, you'll want to enter this giveaway.<br />

It's Friday, I'm all alone in Urlesque HQ and no one is here to stop me from posting about <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/tag/Justin+Bieber/">Justin Bieber</a>. Despite the <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/05/21/shaved-bieber-firefox-add-on/">Shaved Bieber filter</a> that we showed you mere moments ago, some of us <em>like</em> the constant stream of Bieb material that flows across our interwebs. (Ahem, ok, just me?)<br />
<br />
Yesterday, the following footage of Bieber crashing into a revolving glass door revolved onto my computer screen... and into my heart. This is the stuff that the internet is made of, Urlbots.<br clear="all" />

A funny thing has happened in the past two years since we launched Urlesque: my mom got on the internet! She has become an Urlesque-reading, Facebook status messaging machine. So, in honor of today's theme of celebrating moms and posting what they'd like to see today on Urlesque, I asked her to share her favorite web videos. In the spirit of the <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/category/high-five/">High Five</a>, here are her picks. <br />

<div><br />
Sunday, May 9 is one of the most important days of the year -- Mother's Day -- the time when we reflect on the mothers in our lives and the impact they've had on us. Moms and the internet is a funny cross section that we fully embrace on Urlesque, so I found it fitting to dedicate this Friday before Mother's Day as a special tribute to all levels of web savvy moms everywhere.<br />
<br />
Throughout the day, we'll be posting things online that your mom would love, celebrating our favorite internet moms and you'll even hear from a few Urlbot mothers. Urlesque will feature what our moms (and yours!) want to see and, oh yes, there will be <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/category/fw/">e-mail forwards</a>. Some of our moms still don't quite get what we do all day on the internet, but it's okay, we love them for that too. <br />
<br />
Have a mother? Send her over here to partake in today's carefully chosen web bits. Are you a mother? This day's for you! <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/contact/tips/" target="_blank">Tell us what you want to see today</a>. Forgot to get your mom a gift? At least you have a few more days to take care of that. You're welcome.</div>

I've been a longtime baseball semi-fan -- I love the whole charade of going to the ballpark, rooting for the team and having a hot dog or two, but I'm not a die hard loyal to any particular team or follow the standings closely when I'm not at the stadium. So in picking my 5 favorite baseball-related viral videos, it's only natural that they pretty much involve things that were semi-related to the sport and not necessarily the game itself. <br />

We've also made it abundantly clear that we love <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/tag/great+big+stuff" target="_blank">giant things</a>, too. So when I happened upon the amazing creature that is the <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/tag/capybara/">capybara</a>, the largest member of the rodent family, I was pretty into it. Then I found <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/tag/CaplinRous/">Caplin Rous</a>, a domesticated capybara that lives in Texas and also has<span style="font-style: italic;"> quite</span> the internet presence. It was love at first sight -- especially when I found out he liked <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2009/08/27/urlesques-five-favorite-giant-pets-that-live-in-houses-video/">popsicles, blueberries and swimming</a>.<br />
<br />
A trip to Texas recently brought me within driving distance of Caplin's house so I thought it'd be the perfect opportunity to meet Caplin, his owner Melanie Typaldos and find out a little bit more about Caplin's life online and off. And boy, did we eat a lot of popsicles.<br />

Good to know that not too much has changed around here.<br />
<br />
We've accomplished a lot in the short amount of time that we've been on the web -- from keeping you updated on the latest internet <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/category/new-trend">trends</a> and <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/tag/memes/">memes</a>, to <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/nocats">banning cats</a> and getting <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2010/04/02/jaleel-white-interview/">shoutouts from Jaleel White</a> (we'll never get tired of that one) -- and now, over 2 million of you buggers are checking out the site each month*. But how do I know that we've really made it? When you <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=urlesque">Google "urlesque"</a> it no longer asks you <a href="http://www.urlesque.com/2008/04/08/no-google-i-do-not-mean-burlesque/">if you mean burlesque</a>. Success!<br />
<br />
I've been trying to rack my brain for my most favorite posts from the site's history to share but I simply cannot choose... it's like picking favorite children (er, cats). Dear Urlbot readers and bloggers, what have been <em>your </em>most favorite and memorable posts? How long have you been reading? Tell us in the comments below. We want to thank you personally. <br />
<br />
We Urlbots have a tradition of sending the following video to everyone we know that is celebrating a birthday. Today, we're sending it to ourselves.<br clear="all" />

It's that time of the year when Easter's most ubiquitous candy shows up in stores everywhere and somehow trickles onto our computer screens. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.marshmallowpeeps.com/">Marshmallow Peeps</a> have a cult following and whether it's because the pastel bunnies and chicks are adorable or because they're only "in season" for such a short period of time during the year remains to be seen.<br />
<br />
What we do know is that people love to use the candies for way more than just stuffing Easter baskets by taking advantage of the candy's bright colors, sticky composition and cutesy shapes to creatively re-create movie scenes, construct clever dioramas and more. In honor of the web's favorite Easter candy, we'll be highlighting our favorite Peeps-related web junk all week long. Check back every day for a new dose of extra sugary-sweet internet bits.<br />
