The CodeBlacks are the New Zealand team competing in the geek Olympics known as FullCodePress:
FullCodePress is a series of web competitions — the brainchild of the people at Webstock and WIPA. In essence it’s a geek Olympics!
The concept is simple. Web teams take each other on, at the same location, to build a complete website in 24 hours. No excuse, no extensions, no budget overruns.
The first event will be held in Australia on Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 August 2007 between Australia and New Zealand. In 2008 there will be a worldwide challenge for any interested countries — to be held in Wellington New Zealand. We’ll also be facilitating and encouraging competitions within individual countries.
I note they have the good sense to use WordPress as their blogging platform of choice. Obviously they are a team of superior talent and wisdom…
Still, whichever team wins, there are a couple of community groups who will benefit. Those groups will be announced on the morning of the competition, and are busy preparing their materials as I write.
This NZ vs Aus match is a precursor to the international competition in February 2008 in Wellington, New Zealand.
Would you like to organise a team for your country to take part in the international competition in February 2008 in Wellington New Zealand?
If so, perhaps you’d care to Register as a Country organizer – outside Australia and New Zealand.
