The Crunchies award ceremony takes place at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco, with the ceremony beginning at 7:30 pm. It’s an elegant venue that has hosted some of the greatest musical performances in history, just the type of setting to host the most influential technology awards ceremony.
And we hear that the same groups of people who have been protesting the Google bus will also be protesting the Crunchies. Will we be covering the protests? You bet we will — we’ll be covering everything that happens inside or outside the hall tonight.
Stay tuned for the live feed (from inside the hall) in just a few minutes.
