The ReUSEIT contest has announced the winner. Jolly good show.

When I was at junior school in the 80s, we used to have all sorts of themed competitions, such as making easter hats, dressing up as characters from books and so on. I was always win (or do very well) simply because my parents were teachers at a different school (on whose premises we also lived) and had a huge amount of resources like craft material at their disposal. Granted, it took effort, but I had an advantage from the get-go.

The great thing about competitions on the web like ReUSEIT is that the playing field is completely flat. Everyone has as much chance as everyone else, and it simply comes down to talent and creativity. Very democratic, and a very cool place to be.
