UW RELEASE – 2009/194

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2009

WINNIPEG, MB – The University of Winnipeg added another distinction to
its recent list of achievements by having its website www.uwinnipeg.ca
named one of Canada’s Top-50 websites by web50.ca. This announcement
comes on the heels of a Top-10 ranking by Maclean’s Magazine and 10
first- and second-place rankings in the Globe & Mail survey of Canadian
universities.

The web50.ca list is the Internet equivalent of Canada’s 50 Best
Managed Companies ranking. The Top-50 list – which includes sites like
The National Post (www.nationalpost.com), Molson Breweries
(www.molsoncoorscanada.com), The Tragically Hip (www.thehip.com), TSN
(www.tsn.ca), Maclean’s Magazine (www.macleans.ca) and Much Music
(www.muchmusic.com) – features a range of sites in the areas of
business, news, media, sports and entertainment.

The announcement states, “web50.cajudges the best 50 designed
websites for a Canadian company, made by a Canadian company. Some
criteria they look for is whether the site is organized and easy to
navigate, has a good balance of colours, delivers content in a quick and
effective manner and features a good selection of photos and unique
written content.”

The new uwinnipeg.ca site launched in April 2009. The team responsible
for the redevelopment included Marnie Loewen (University webmaster),
Simian Systems (programmers), Elemental Motion Media (designers) and
Daemon Defense (hosting solutions).

“We feel very honoured to be included in this prestigious list of
professional websites,” said Shawn Coates, Director of Marketing &
Communications at The University of Winnipeg. “When we began the
process of redeveloping the website, we sought the input of our faculty,
staff and students. Their wishes became reality with the assistance of
our technology partners.”
