(New York, NY - January 15, 2008) - JupiterOnlineMedia, a division of Jupitermedia Corporation (Nasdaq: JUPM), today announced the winners for the Developer.com Product of the Year Awards for 2008. These 2008 awards mark the sixth year for this competition. The winners were nominated and selected by the users of Developer.com (www.developer.com), a leading online information resource dedicated to providing technology information for developers.

"In the main category of Technology, desktop development topics were lacking." stated Bradley Jones, Executive Editor of EarthWeb.com's Software Development Channel. "Based on the nominations and voting, Web and online service based development appear to be a primary focus for a majority of developers." added Jones.

Rosemarie Graham, Managing Editor of Developer.com, stated, "AJAX once again took top honors for the Technology of the year. In most of the other categories there were clear-cut winners such as Google Maps, Firefox, and JSE 6.
