[Sigia-l] FullCodePress - shameless plug

[Mike Brown]

FullCodePress <www.fullcodepress.com> - the "geek Olympics"!

This weekend (18/19 August) the New Zealand web team, the "Code Blacks"
<http://www.fullcodepress.com/2007/07/16/nz-team-bios/> will take on the
Australian team
<http://www.fullcodepress.com/2007/07/12/aussie-team-bios/> in a 24hr
challenge to build a website for a non-profit organisation.

Each team has 7 members, covering the range of skills needed to build a
website. The teams won't know who they're building the site for until the
competition starts. They'll then face a caffeine-loaded 24 hours, at the
end of which two non-profit organisations will have a fully-functional
website.

A judging panel will assess each site against a range of criteria,
including standards-compliance, accessibility, copy writing and design.

Action will be live on the 18th and 19th via YouTube, flickr, twitter and
various blogs, with interviews, updates on progress and pictures of tired
and stressed team members!. Look for the tag "fullcodepress".
