A first for RNZ, but certainly not for NZ radio. Several stations, including my own LPFM Station (Twisted) have operated webcams and intermittant live video streaming for well over a year now... they're just small enough not to bother with nznog notification for traffic loads. It's nice to see RNZ catching up to the rest of the world though.. (and to the local tech-savvy LPFM stations, who are far often far ahead of the commercial/govt broadcasters in terms of online presence and features)
Over the summer break we will be providing a Studio Cam for the top rating Matinee Idle radio show, hosted by Phil O'Brien.

This is a first for Radio NZ and as far as I am aware a first for New Zealand Radio in general.
