Today Raka launched a new website for V2 Strategic Advisors. Playing on their style of using the white board to brainstorm their ideas on making businesses more agile, we designed a website that allows visitors to learn more about V2 and even get involved (see if you can find the Easter Egg with the markers if you’re using Firefox or Safari).

Raka today launched a new website for Liberty Mutual’s social media, tying all of their social outreach into one hub. The concept for the site was to pull all of their communications into one place, so customers and employees could see everything happening at Liberty Mutual in one place, instead of having to go all over the Internet using various tools and websites. Raka designed and built the website to pull in Twitter, Facebook and YouTube feeds, as well as give them control over featured content to be able to promote specific pieces.

Raka again went to the fantastic Wellington Room in downtown Portsmouth for our end-of-year holiday dinner. With a delicious meal and best view in the city, a good time was had by all as we look forward to a great 2011 together.

Raka launched a new tool for Freedom Fertility Pharmacy that allows them to update their pharmacy’s fertility medication price list through a content management system, and then see the quotes that customers can put together using the tool. With advanced technology allowing coupons to appear when certain price points are hit in the quote, and the ability to filter quotes in various ways on the back-end, the tool instantly became a hit on their website and has been one of the top destinations for customers when they are researching Freedom.

Working with Liberty Mutual, Raka designed, developed and animated an interactive online game where users play as “Hope the Fish”, swimming through a tank collecting points and eating words to help put an end to hopelessness through charitable giving. Meant as an internal game for Liberty employees, the application seeks to get everyone involved in giving back; and having a little fun while they’re at it!

Raka today launched a new website for Blio, the revolutionary new eReader software. Blio is a free eReading application for Windows (with iOS, Android and Silverlight versions coming soon) that presents eBooks just like the printed version, in full color, and with all of the features you’d want from an eReader, and more. The software comes from K-NFB Reading, a joint venture between Kurzweil Technologies, headed by the legendary Ray Kurzweil, and the National Federation of the Blind.

Today SeacoastOnline.com featured an article on Raka talking about how we recently turned 6, added members to our team and continue to grow. It’s a nice little overview of our agency, if you have the time to take a look!

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 recently came out, and Raka helped the launch by designing, animating and developing a demo of the new features that makes version 11 an easy decision for those thinking about updating or buying the powerful software for the first time. Raka developed the demo by walking viewers through the software’s features in a combined technique of using real screenshots of the software, and illustrations to make the points clear. With voiceover guiding the timeline, the finished piece helps tell the story behind why Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 is faster, better and smarter. Check out the demo here!

Raka designed and developed a website and application for Practically Green that helps visitors figure out how environmentally conscious they are, determine the next steps in “greening up” their lives, find products and services that experts and friends trust, and stay motivated to keep improving.

Practically Green is a combination of a free membership community site, blog, online quiz and application that all combine to give members a real tool set to change their lives and the planet. With integration into Facebook and Twitter, rewards and offers, awards and badges, the ability to see how others in your area are doing and more, this advanced website is already getting great reactions and helping to practically improve lives and the environment, one person at a time. Check out the Practically Green website and become a member!

Raka recently launched a new website for Turbana, one of the leading importers of bananas, exotics and pineapples, and the number-one importer of Fair Trade bananas and plantains in North America. We designed and developed this website for their plantain chips in Flash for a fun and engaging user experience. Keeping things light and playful, we built on their new brand and character “Max Platanicious” and created a colorful and bouncy site that introduces visitors to the delicious snack well-known in many countries outside of the United States. With this new launch, Turbana is set to bring plantain chips to the American public as a healthier alternative to potato chips. View the Turbana Plantain Chips website here!
