A husband and wife are developing a Maori language version of the search engine Google in an effort to encourage more Maori to use the net.
Potaua Biasiny-Tule, 32, and Nikolasa Biasiny-Tule, 35, of Rotorua are directing a team of volunteers from around the country translating the search pages into a Google Maori language option.
And their idea has been welcomed by Google's American owners.
Out of 117 language options, Tongan is the only Pacific tongue recognised. But the couple hope the Maori option will be a hit.
