Saberia focuses its content to the school community

Saberia.com is now an educational knowledge website. The site has been progressively growing since it was launched back in 2009 and there has been a new focus in users’ demands, most of whom are students. This new focus has led Saberia to make a fundamental change in its aims as it now progresses towards becoming a reference site for the scholar community.

Students, parents and teachers will still be able to find some of the most read posts in Saberia, such as the world’s capitals or the most curious inventions. However, all the questions and answers are now categorized by subjects and have been adapted to meet the needs of those who are still at the age to learn.

As well as offering knowledge related content, a wide range of educational resources have been added in Saberia: countries and continents’ maps, maths and orthographic exercises, images of the human body, a periodical table of chemical elements, an online dictionary, a language translator, and many other surprises including printable versions- so you can practise either with or without the computer.

And of course, Saberia’s design and usability have also been adapted to suit the needs of our users, who indeed, will be able to entertain themselves with a wide range of fun and educational games. Learning never was so much fun!

The latest news about Conteneo’s Tools

One of Conteneo’s commitments is to offer users relevant and useful content. That is the philosophy with which we always create our projects but this is clearly reflected in the Tools Network  launched a few months ago.

Some of the Tools built by Conteneo are an online translator, a compendium of maps, a job aggregator and a website that gives information about lightning, solar radiation or temperature. Calcumeter joins them with a collection of different calculators for finances, health, savings or employment, all of them both in English and Spanish.

You can already use our online calculators to know things like how many liters of paint is needed to paint a room, what would be your severance pay or how many meters a yard is. Currently there are 17 calculators but there will be many more soon.

All our calculators are easy and intuitive and -as the rest of our Tools-  can be placed in your blog or website by using a code. This way you can offer extra content to your users.

Could you calculate how old a dog is in human years or the body mass index of a person? Find out in Calcumeter.

Conteneo celebrates one year as Patrons of AlhóndigaBilbao

Conteneo and Alhondiga

2011 has been a year full of achievements and new launches for Conteneo. In the area of CSR we began the year signing a sponsorship agreement with AlhóndigaBilbao, the most pioneering leisure and culture centre of Biscay. Due to this collaboration we held eleven round tables -called ‘nettokis’- on different subjects related to internet: ebooks, games online, cloud computing, etc. In them the attendees got to know first hand the point of view of the experts on the subjects, which made a very good final impression on the audience.

Some very succesfull activities related to chess were also held during the last 12 months thanks to this agreement between AlhóndigaBilbao and Conteneo. We have set up courses of chess for children and adults, as well as simultaneous games with top players, all of it with the collaboration of Conteneo Bilbao Haitzak Chess Club, current 2nd place team of the Euskadi Chess Clubs Contest. The acceptance has been so good that a permanent set to play chess is already settled in AlhóndigaBilbao.

Now Conteneo is working on new challenges with the help of AlhóndigaBilbao. We will be pleased to tell you about them all very soon.
