As readers of Aardvark will already know, there has been mass debate on the topic in the Aardvark forums . Todays SODA spotlight goes to the New Zealand Tourism Online site. The main page introduces what is available in a clean and fresh style which is continued inside as page headers. Images are very well executed with good attention to how they fit into the rest of the page with the use of white space. They are also small in file size for fast loading.
Page layouts are consistent with the contents arranged in columnar format.
The font changes are a little inconsistent in places though. We guess the ideal would be to have the links open in a new browser window. Also missing is a meaningful map of New Zealand.
