The clos­ing date for this year’s McFarlane for Excellence in Australian Web Design prize is next Monday, so you only have a few days to nom­i­nate your site, or some­one else’s site for the prize.

The McFarlane prize was inau­gu­rated in 2006 in mem­ory of Nigel McFarlane. The goal is to recog­nise excel­lence in design, acces­si­bil­ity, cod­ing, usabil­ity, and impact. Unlike most sim­i­lar awards, the prize uses objec­tive as well as sub­jec­tive criteria,and gives equal weight­ing to the var­i­ous areas of web practice.

So, nom­i­nate a site you think is wor­thy, or a site you’ve built, for the chance to enter the hall of fame with past win­ners Michael Koukoullis and Museum Victoria.

   I sub­mit­ted mine so fin­gers crossed!

   I don’t want to sound pre­sump­tu­ous but what if we win and we’re not at Web Directions?

   Hi Steven,

   many thanks.

   We notify all the short­listed folks — and, we can arrange for some­one to col­lect on your behalf should you win.

   ;-)
