Macworld (http://www.macworld.com), the world's foremost Mac authority, announced the winners of the 23rd annual Editors' Choice Awards. Macworld editors looked back at products released this past year (from November 1, 2006 - November 1, 2007) and their choices included everything from the headline-grabbing Apple iPhone to Red Sweater Software's MarsEdit 2, a blog publisher. The final selections were made based on quality, innovation, and value. The article and complete list of Eddy recipients can be found online at http://www.macworld.com/3290.
