Notodo.com, as explained in the press release published on the web, “has been a referent since the beginning of the digital age. It represents the La Fabrica’s spirit on Internet. Its origin dates from 2000 in order to offer "notodo lo que hay" (not everything there is), but a careful selection of the finest representatives from different cultural expressions. That’s the reason why it has become, in ten years, into the web of cultural recommendation in Spain, with over 100.000 registered users in the weekly bulletin and 65.000 users per month”.
“During these years, Notodo.com has created its own projects, such as the Jameson Notodofilmfest, a pioneer short film festival on Internet, Notodofotofest.com, Collective Photography Festival, Photogaleria.com, virtual gallery where author’s pictures are sold and Notodohoteles.com, the guide including the best hotels in Spain, Andorra and Portugal”.
“Furthermore, in these 10 years of career, many institutions, companies and famous brands have found in Notodo.com the perfect framework to materialize specific cultural projects with their own identity. Canal +, ABC, Repsol, AECID, Biodiversity Foundation, Ministry of Culture, Acciona, Caja Madrid, Sony, Opel, Microsoft, Olimpus, Samsung, J&B, Plan España, SECC –State Society of Cultural Commemorations–, Mapfre, Matadero Madrid, KREA or La Casa Encendida, have been some of the accomplices in these projects and they have shared the value given by Notodo.com to culture on Internet”.
