Using YouTube and GoogleMaps, we created web 2.0 tools to build a unique social networking experince. Users are sharing fish tales and favorite fishing spots; see some of them @ http://www.takemefishing.org

Johnson & Johnson – After another web development company couldn’t handle their ambitious Health Simple site, partners The Nerdery and Hartung Kemp delivered an incredibly rich Flash and Flex microsite. In its second development phase, see it @ http://www.healthsimple.com/splash

Travelers Insurance – Partnering with Fallon, we understood the vision and strategy Fallon communicated to target a user experience unique to Travelers.

  Nerdery Interactive Labs

  (Privately Held; Internet industry)

  February 2009 — Present (6 months)

  We build things that makes the Internets neat. I'm the nerd trained to speak business as a second language (BSL?). Don't want to hear low level details about data model syntax, web clustering, or cloud computing? Cool. We'll talk about what your clients needs. Or how we can add another degree to your services. Or we can talk about hockey. I'm game for any.
  
  Huh? We provide interactive developers to our agency partners to execute the production of their end client's campaign.
  
  What? In other words, we have 70+ hardcore, card-carrying nerds under our roof so that you don't have to.
  
  Which means? We do it. Rich media apps, mobile apps, web apps..
  
  Cool.
