Skypedaddies Janus Friis and Niklas Zennström have been nominated as Europeans of the Year in the prestigious EV50 Awards.

Like a sort of Euro Names Oscars shortlist, the EV50 spotlights the continent's top 50 movers and shakers. Other nominees this year include German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the groundbreaking French surgeons who performed the world's first face transplant.
