The National Digital Forum's Coming Home initiative, powered by Digital New Zealand, is nearly here and we need your help! The response from NDF members was fantastic with many great examples of the richness of our collections related to the Armistice theme.
The DigitalNZ team has used one of its unique applications to produce a special Coming Home search widget that can be added to any website. You can use the widget to discover Coming Home content across all participating NDF partners.
We would like all NDF partners to embed this widget on their sites in time for Armistice Day on 11 November 2008 so that we can showcase our collaboration in commemorating the 90th Anniversary of the Armistice.
We will be in touch in the very near future with more information and simple instructions on how to embed the widget on your page.
We'll email you with updates and all communications will be on this blog - ndfcominghome.blogspot.com
We will also have more information about the special Coming Home interactive Memory Maker which some NDF partners have contributed content to. The Memory Maker will let New Zealanders, young and old, create their own way of remembering the impact of war on this country by developing their own memory collage of images, text, sound and video from a range of our culture and heritage institutions.
Together the NDF and DigitalNZ are showing how we can make it easier for New Zealanders to discover and interact with New Zealand's content in exciting new ways. This is a wonderful initiative and one that NDF should be proud to show off!
