Shown below are the awards won by the Tucson Computer Society's Web site and its membership publication The Journal. We are honored to have achieved this recognition and continue to strive to improve.



The Web Site

In October 2007, TCS entered its web site in the Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG) web site competition. TCS was awarded 1st place in the "Very Large Groups" category. There were 77 web sites entered into the competition and 18 that were entered in the "Very Large Groups" category.

In January 2006 the TCS web site won 3rd place for the APCUG "Large Groups" contest. The layout was redesigned by former webmaster Jan Boyett, with the unrelenting contribution and support of Barbara Nuehring and Bob Eldred.

In 2000 the TCS web site tied for 1st place in the Web site contest of the Southwestern Regional Users' Group Conference.

In previous years, APCUG declared the TCS web site the winner of the "Speed" category — apparently the fastest web site in the west (or anywhere else, for that matter) — and honorable mention in the "Legibility" category.

In the annual competition sponsored by the New York PC Users Group, the TCS web site designed by Charles A. Lee won the "Use of Technology" category and was the top runner-up for "Best Overall". TCS's site was the contest's only repeat winner.

The TCS web site designed by John "Bud" Banks won the "Presentation" category and was a runner-up in the "Design" category.
