      <title>A Collaborative Rebranding Effort</title>
      <link>http://www.arukor.com/Blog/tabid/106/EntryId/19/A-Collaborative-Rebranding-Effort.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Arukor Communications attended the Society of Professional Communicators annual dinner. It was an exciting and historic meeting because the organization unvieled its new name as well as a new identity. The rebranded group aims to bring together the strengths of two organizations that have long histories in Central Massachusetts: the Society of Professional Communicators (SPC) and the Ad Club of Greater Worcester. The organization is now known as The Communicators Club, and its fresh, clean look represents the upward momentum being experienced by this fast-growing group. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="category"&gt;Category: &lt;a href=http://www.arukor.com/Blog/tabid/106/CatID/1/Default.aspx&gt;Website Design and Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

      <description>Every year the Arukor Communications team selects a few organizations from a long list of worth-while causes that can benefit from our services.  With late-nights and a few extra cups of coffee (and the occasional glass of wine)  in the past year alone Arukor has donated close to $10,000 in services to the Shrewsbury, MA community in an effort to make a difference. </description>

      <title>Strong Passwords Key to Online Protection</title>
      <link>http://www.arukor.com/Blog/tabid/106/EntryId/1/Strong-Passwords-Key-to-Online-Protection.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Author: Amy Kotsopoulos &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I just received an email from a friend telling me her account was hacked and not to open any email attachments sent from her address until further notice. My niece complained about the obscene photos posted to her Facebook News Feed from an unknown source. The local news recently reported that my mother’s maiden name is for sale by online crooks. Threats abound, so what is frequent online flier to do? Start by creating strong passwords for your online accounts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="tags"&gt;Tags: Social Media,Web Security&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="category"&gt;Category: &lt;a href=http://www.arukor.com/Blog/tabid/106/CatID/4/Default.aspx&gt;Social Media&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
