Have a look at some of the sites coming out of NZ at the moment....the TVNZ Site[1] is a nice example...
I'm also based in Auckland implementing web-based applications and doing my best to spread the web standards message. Good to see there are others out there.
I'm afraid, though, I have to take issue with putting forth the TVNZ site. I'm afraid it has to rate as one of the most disappointing site re-launches for a good while. Apart from being well wide of the web standards mark it takes an age to load on anything but a broadband connection. I know they changed the back-end to Cocoon, but I was hoping they'd grasp the web standards nettle and revamp the markup as well.
Cheers Peter
