NZ tourism site wins top award

New Zealand's official tourism website has won a Webby - the online equivalent of an Oscar.

The site - www.newzealand.com (see link below) - was developed by Shift Ltd, whose creative director Brian Smith said: "The Webby's represent the pinnacle of recognition in our profession".

The prestigious award is issued by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, whose members include musician David Bowie, businesswoman Anita Roddick and The Simpsons' creator Matt Groening.
