Bluecadet-designed Counterspill, the world's first site to aggregate the history and impact of all major natural energy disasters around the world, has won two Interactive Media Awards! The site won "Best in Class" in the "Energy" category and in the "Natural Environment / Green" category with impressive scores of 481, and 485, respectively.

"The Best in Class award is the highest honor bestowed by the Interactive Media Awards. It represents the very best in planning, execution and overall professionalism. In order to win this award level, your site had to successfully pass through our comprehensive judging process, achieving very high marks in each of our judging criteria - an achievement only a fraction of sites in the IMA competition earn each year."- Interactive Media Awards

The five scoring criteria are Design, Content, Feature Functionality, Usability, and Standards Compliance & Cross-Browser Compatibility, and each are scored out of 100, with a total maximum score of 500. Counterspill scored in the high 90s (and 100s) for all of the criteria in both categories, making it a best in class winner twice over.
