Hi Stevie, Mono's blog post was published on Friday, less than half an hour after this email announcement. You can find it at https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/02/22/winner-2012-picture-of-the-year/ . Apologies that the link had not been posted here yet.
The latest posts are always displayed on https://blog.wikimedia.org/ , and usually also announced on social media (Twitter, Identi.ca, Facebook, Google+), as was this one.
