Apple opens nominations for 2012 Apple Design Awards

Every year Apple recognizes those iOS and OS X developers whose work is a step above the competition with its Apple Design Awards. Nominations for these outstanding apps start in the spring and the winners are announced at WWDC. This year will be no different.

Starting today, Apple has kicked off the 2012 nomination process. You can head over to Apple's WWDC awards website and login with your developers ID to nominate your favorite app. Apple is looking for apps that are well-designed, state of the art and innovative.
