To celebrate their 1,000,000 site creation Wetpaint is hosting the Golden Paint Can Awards!

The prize:

• Custom “Award Winner” badges for your site
• Promotion of your site on the Wetpaint homepage
• Mentions in the Wetpaint e-mail newsletter
• Lifelong bragging rights

I’ve been spending the last 30 minutes browsing the categories and looking at different layouts of sites to get ideas in helping teachers design good looking wikis. It’s a great way to get familiar with Wetpaint and at the same time get ideas on how to use Wetpaint in your classroom or school.

Of course you’ll want to stop by the Education 2.0 category and cast your vote for the best Education 2.0 wiki site.

Wetpaint is such a powerful wiki program and these top sites really showcase the versatility of the software.
