InfoWorld announced the winners of the 2009 Technology of the Year Awards in Applications, Middleware, and Data Management:

The Awards are presented in a slideshow format, and InfoWorld made it almost unreadable: there is an ad in between every single page, you either 20 second to flip a page, or have to click “skip” every single time, then click one more time to close another page that hides the slide. Frankly, I think they went way overboard with this.

That said, I did the work for you, here are the winners:

• Mozilla Firefox
• Zoho Writer, Sheet, Show
• Day Communique WCM
• Telligent Community Server 2008
• Oracle Database 11g
• Talend Open Studio
• Denodo Platform

Congratulations to the winners!
