The Center itself is housed in the original American Bandstand broadcast studio (suggested by Bill Jensen)

Curlie
The successor to Gnuhoo, later Newhoo, later the Open Directory Project and DMoz, a volunteer-edited directory of websites (10/23)

Electronic Telegraph
A pioneer on the web and the best source for UK news: reports from The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph

Financial Times
Far better now that the design has matured to take into account the web reader of the FT. Again, familiar content and great journalism geared for the business reader

Handelsblatt
Germany’s financial newspaper. In print it’s one of the best designed in the country; the online edition preserves much of this integrity with useful charts of the DAX and latest news

Newsroom
New Zealand site has a lot going for it, not least parliamentary reports and up-to-the-minute additions

The New York Times
Much better now that the content's available to everyone. The NYT preserves much of the look of the print edition, and design—and content-wise, is one of the best transplant efforts on the web

SciTechDaily
New Zealand’s first Webby Award nominee (2002), Vicki Hyde’s site was beaten in the People’s Voice by mere percentage points by the might of NASA—a most respectable effort.

Mojeek
Our default search engine at our company. It behaves as a search engine should, rather than tries to second-guess your queries. It has a growing index and, based on our research, it’s bigger than Bing’s. And unlike Google, it really doesn’t track you at all (that also makes it one up on so many other search engines that claim they don’t, yet do)
