Web Site: Telia

Telia Hyrfilm

Telia is Swedens leading provider of telephone and data communication. Like you and us they think it’s always too far to go to the closest physical video store.

Using Eniros map APIs we created an application that tells the visitor how far it is to the closest video renter. Depending on the distance the visitor got different deals and chances to compete for a TV set and free films.

Web Site: Folksam at Vasaloppet

Vasaloppet - start

We created a web site and a statistics demonstration solution for insurance company Folksam at Vasaloppet – one of the worlds biggest skiing event.

The site lets the visitor guess the time it takes them to finish the race. If they do this well enough they receive a text message containing a special price from Folksam. Having guessed the visitor is also provided with some interesting statistics to share on Twitter and Facebook.

We also made a Flash application serving visitors of the Vasaloppet fair with interesting statistics on the different races taking place during the two weeks of the Vasaloppet races. The statistics are based on real time data fetched from the system getting the information from data chips placed on the skiers.
