<p>It was <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS121313+19-Oct-2009+BW20091019">announced today</a> that <a href="http://ford.com">Ford Motor Company</a> has won the Brand of the Year award from the <a href="http://sncr.org/">Society for New Communications Research</a>. My time at SMG began just as the Ford's <a href="http://ford.digitalsnippets.com/">social media adventures</a> were beginning and I'm proud to have been part of the team that laid the foundation for today's successes. </p>
<p>So a heart-felt congratulations to <a href="http://twitter.com/maggiefox">Maggie</a> and the crew at SMG for a job well done and an award not exactly won. ;)
