Abstract
This is my penultimate Annual Report to the SIGWEB Membership and I continue to be lucky in having good news to report. As is traditional, there will also be a face-to-face SIGWEB Town Meeting on June 15 during Hypertext 2010 in Toronto, Canada. SIGWEB is sound financially and has a solid pool of volunteers working on the SIG and its conferences. Membership has been rising recently, too. The Executive Committee is supporting a number of new initiatives including Student Travel Awards and increased communication and publicity efforts. A particularly exciting development is that SIGWEB is close to completing an agreement to be the primary sponsor of the Web Science conference series.
