You've seen ExWeb in NYT, WP, Financial Times, Forbes mag, CNN, UK Sunday Times, Sports Illustrated, various cable and tech news, and we even forgot the rest. That's great, maybe we'll even make money some day!

Awards sure help to ease the burden of slavery so we were really happy to find ExplorersWeb in NG Adventure's December issue special: "Best of Adventure in 2005."

Rising at 3 a.m. for updates

The text said: "A consistently surprising - and occasionally harrowing - source of expedition news online."

"One caution: The dispatches from the field can become addictive when things start to go wrong out there."

"So, if you find you're rising at 3 a.m. for updates from someone marooned on pack ice in the Weddell Sea - well, that's when you might log off for a while."

Addictive? And we thought it was just us pacing the floor in the night... Hey NG - thanks guys!
