Television show Leukste dorp van Nederland (roughly translated: Best small town in the Netherlands) revolves around the search of the best rural town in The Netherlands. In this show you follow TMF VJ’s Willy and Saar in their search of this special town.

What’s so special about this show? You can follow it on television but also online. People had the chance to submit their own town to TMF and now the 12 best towns have been picked to participate in the show. In each episode the people from these town do their best to get as much points for their assignments. These assignments range from who has the best looking girl in the local supermarket, who can make the most noise with their tractor, etc.

Besides the total score of these towns on television there’s also a big online challenge: To get as many friends on Hyves (biggest social network in The Netherlands). If you have more friends on Hyves, then the town has a bigger chance of winning the race.

After twelve weeks the two best towns will compete with each other in the finals.

For this website a special widget has also been made to be distributed on Hyves so that Hyves users can show their support for their town. Each town has their own customized Hyves page.

The design and interaction design for the website has been made by me, the website has been built by Niels Filmer and the widget has been designed by Dennis Aarts and built by Fabian Scheepers.
