TangataWhenua.com<\/a>, founded in 2003 by Nikolasa & Potaua Biasiny-Tule, is an indigenous, M\u0101ori-run and M\u0101ori-operated online news and information site based in Rotorua, Aotearoa New Zealand.<\/p>\n

“It is the most active and popular Maori specific news website (30K+ hits a week).”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Speakers\u00a0Nikolasa & Potaua will share the presentation with Nik more focussed on design and “how” and Potaua on the “what”, “who” and “why”. We find out what being digitally reconstructed by\u00a0TangataWhenua.com<\/a>\u00a0means.<\/p>\n

\"Poutaua<\/a>

Poutaua Biasiny-Tule -Digital Maori \u2013 NZ<\/p><\/div>\n

The name comes from the phrase Tangata Whenua, “People of the Land”. We began using basic HTML to run the site but migrated completely to WordPress in 2008\/9.<\/p>\n

We use magazine themes exclusively on our site but to really pay the bills and feed our babies we now develop commercial websites for Maori Trusts, Incorporations and Business and offer other corporate services (branding, database, news, social networking, registration drives.)<\/p>\n

Nikolasa & Potaua\u00a0will talk about the use of magazine themes (hone.co.nz, raukawaFM, TangataWhenua.com, mana.net.nz (to a lesser degree, it’s not magazine specific but has the qualities of being one) as the foundation for effective news\/information focused websites.<\/p>\n

The importance of style\/graphics in turning a basic theme into something simply beautiful while reflecting the vision\/kaupapa\/essence of the organisation\/business\/entity it is being developed for.<\/p>\n

And along the way they will talk about the favourite WordPress themes and plugins that they use and why.\u00a0They developed and currently content manage the following sites:<\/p>\n
