The WCS 2009 web page is finally up!!! Kishimoto-san (aka DJ Kissy) has been slaving on it for months and I'll bet he's pretty happy to have it online.
I did a little poking around and found some great upgrades from previous versions.
Right on the top page you can see some very cool fade in images from last years event. Whoever did the image selection and editing did a great job!
Profiles of the 9 teams that have been selected until now can be found in the profiles section:

You can see the photo gallery from the countries already selected as well:

There are reports available on the proceedings of each national final with placement and performance details of each preliminary event participant:

There is plenty of details on rules and regulations. Take a look at them, there are some changes from 2008:

Another cool new part to the web page is the complete list of preliminary rounds. With 15 countries participating now its easy to make a mistake with which preliminary took place when. I have made that mistake. (>,<) Also, there is detailed information on the multiple regional rounds in Brazil and Australia.

Another need addition is a new sort of random image selection on the right side, keep clicking through and maybe come across some content that you haven't seen before.
Altogether a pretty robust page with lots of content to go through. Enjoy and you can say thanks to DJ Kissy for his hard work by leaving a comment here:
