The third incarnation of the show -- honoring the best in online video offerings -- has lined up comedian Chris Hardwick to emcee the proceedings.

Drew Baldwin, the creator of the Streamy Awards, told THR in November that he envisioned the upcoming awards show to reflect a "level playing field where true talent — regardless of whether they come from a Hollywood studio or a suburban bedroom — can receive the recognition and the honor it deserves."
