All New Zealand doodles will be entered into a local competition. Google employees will select the top 10 doodles, which will then be put to a public vote to identify our national winner. The winning entry will be displayed on the Google New Zealand homepage for 24 hours on 15 June, 2010.
For the first time, the national winner will then be put forward to a global final, with the opportunity to have their Doodle displayed to billions of people worldwide on 11 July, 2010. Needless to say that the global winner and the runner up will win
amazing prizes!
