Although new, the site is based on an exhibit at the NMAH that took place in 1996 and 1997. It contains sections on the invention process, the commercial success of the instrument, and the development of its design. In conjunction with these announcements the Academy, in tandem with the ABC television network, has launched a site devoted to the awards. Interested users can find information on cities from Acapulco to Zurich. While information provided is by no means exhaustive, each guide contains sections on attractions, accommodations, restaurants, and getting around, among others.
Visitors can opt to build an interactive, personalized mini-guide to the city of their choice.
Each destination contains a small photo gallery. EON is a new electronic magazine provided by Centropolis Interactive and edited by Mark Altman.
