Y INTERACT – Going Into the Third Quarter of 2011

Heading into the last quarter of our 10th anniversary year, here is a recap of what Y INTERACT has been up to in our new studio at One Maiden Lane.

We kicked off the summer in support of a couple of fantastic not-for-profit organizations, including Cool Culture’s Catch the Cool family event at the Queens Museum of Art, and the Reginald F. Lewis Gala Luncheon in East Hampton, for which Y INTERACT designed all promotional media surrounding the event, including website, invite, program book, and more.

In celebration of our 10th anniversary, we sponsored the 10th hole at the FCS Charity Golf Tournament for The Hope and Heroes Children’s Cancer Fund, Downey Side Adoption Agency, and The Make-a-Wish Foundation of Vermont.

Did your cabbie refuse a credit card payment? Talking on his cell phone? Download Report A Taxi, our second smartphone app, released in July for the iPhone. The app allows passengers to report dangerous or rude drivers to the Taxi and Limousine Commission. Read the press release in Yahoo! News.

Watch this space for the second release of Report A Taxi for the iPhone and the first launch for Android. To learn more and download Report A Taxi, visit www.reportataxi.com.

Also on the horizon as the year comes to a close, we will be re-launching our own website, YINTERACT.com to highlight our expanding range of services including mobile and social media apps, and video production. Click here to view our video and motion graphics demo reel.

If you missed our Social Networking 101 reception and panel discussion at the Wall Street Journal, we will be teaming up once again with Financial Communications Society to present "Mobile 101" – using smartphones to engage audiences and stay relevant – at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in NYC. Contact Ahmed Yearwood at studio@yinteract.com to learn more about this event.

We’re already prepping for January 2012, when we head back up to Stowe, Vermont for the 13th annual FCS Race for Kids. And watch this space for our 5th annual Chinese New Year Party, celebrating the Year of the Dragon!
