"Firmseek continues to prove its innovative spirit. The 'Seasons of Anxiety' calendar is an extraordinary new internet vehicle that will engage the public in our message of legal reform."

Franklin Stone, Executive Director

Client Profile
Founded by Philip Howard, co-chairman of the international law firm, Covington & Burling, Common Good has taken on the challenge of restoring common sense to the American judicial system. The organization has been profiled on shows such as Dateline NBC and 20/20 and has received front-page press in publications such as Time and Newsweek.

The Challenge
Common Good called upon Firmseek to create a Flash-based calendar that would highlight the chilling effect that the threat of litigation has on year-round activities. The calendar was to play a central role in Common Good's public interest message.

Firmseek's Solution

  • Developed interactive Flash presentation that illustrates the before-and-after impact of litigation threats.
  • Applied state-of-the-art programming to give pages a realistic page-flipping effect, complete with shadows and user-controlled flipping of the pages.
  • Integrated the Flash piece with database functionality to enable Common Good staff to update the piece with new documents and content at any time.
  • Designed the look and feel for a series of charts that demonstrate the steps school officials need to take when doing something as simple as replacing a heating system.
  • Integrated the calendar with pages on the site and email and other functionality.
  • The site accomplished the organization's goal. The Seasons of Anxiety calendar received rave reviews across the board and has helped further the organization's message.
