In the 2000s New Zealanders, especially younger ones, have increasingly followed the news on the internet – at first on computers but increasingly from cell phones.

Fairfax pulled together material from a range of their regional newspapers such as the Dominion Post and the Press into the Stuff site, which eventually earned more revenue than the print newspapers.
