BEDRE reklame becomes Nooku partner

We’re proud to announce BEDRE reklame as a new Nooku Partner. BEDRE  reklame have been at the forefront of Joomla development in Norway since Joomla was born, so we are very excited when they chose to Partner with us.

Although the Partnership originally focused on Nooku Content, it was the underlying Nooku Framework that really opened BEDRE reklame’s eyes.

According to Torkil Johnsen, “The Nooku Framework has so far proven to be both a time and lifesaver. Thanks to this technology, we are able to produce more secure and robust code in a shorter amount of time, when creating Joomla extensions”.

As our first Norwegian partner, BEDRE reklame is now enjoying the benefits of Joomla’s only  enterprise grade translation system as well as the RAD framework that made it possible. Definitely a win win for BEDRE reklame.

We would like to thank BEDRE reklame for their support, and look forward to many years of mutually beneficial development on Nooku Content and Nooku Framework.

Nooku TV – Anahita Social Engine for Joomla!

In the second episode of Nooku TV Pete Russell talks to web architect Rastin Mehr, of rmdstudio.com,  about Anahita, a new social engine framework for Joomla. At its core Anahita is powered by our own Nooku Framework.

Rastin’s experience with Nooku Framework took Anahita to unexpected levels :

  • rmd Studio discovers Nooku Framework
  • Subsequently entirely re-wrote Anahita (using Nooku) in six weeks
  • Far more fun!
  • Could not have built Anahita without Nooku Framework
  • Plugs into Joomla!
  • "Alien-life form inside Joomla! makes Joomla better and smarter and live longer…"
  • Nooku Framework is "the MVC core that Joomla always wanted"

More information about Anahita Social Engine can be found on Anahitapolis.com

One Click Site Content Translation

One of our partners, Web Translations, recently announced a cool new service called Click 4 Translation.
Why is this cool? With Joomla + Nooku Content, the technical side of having multi-lingual content was already covered, but now the actual translation gets easier as well. This service tightly integrates with Nooku Content and helps you with the translation into another language (or five or eight like some of our Nooku clients’ sites!)

How does it work? Just as always, you publish an article or add content to your website, in your local language. With the click of a button, your content is emailed to translators who will send back the translated files in the required languages of choice.

We think that’s pretty cool: it will help allow customers and readers to have more multi-lingual conversations, just like the real world. Let us know if you want to integrate other web services with Nooku Content, so website developers and content managers can make really great websites!

How Nooku helps the United Nations

The United Nations has gone live with its first Nooku Content powered site. They first got in touch with us in January 2008 when they were looking for a professional multi-lingual solution to migrate their European portal to Joomla 1.5.

“We evaluated many open source software solutions and found Joomla to be the best for us,” says Philippe Chabot, ICT coordinator at the United Nations. “When we looked at our two options, Drupal did not perform as well as Joomla. Now that we have a lot of experience with Joomla we are no longer looking at other applications. Of course, from time to time, for risk management best practices we will evaluate all available options.”
