The Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad opened a website dedicated to the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 and the Dutch national selection, the Nationaal Songfestival. The German news paper taz was the first one to create such a website completely dedicated to the contest.

Henk Langerak, creator of the website, says that “the Eurovision Song Contest isn't hot among the big public now, but that it's nice to have the website ready at the time the preselections will start in March”. Langerak has twelve years of experience with the Eurovision Song Contest as commentator for the newspaper.
