Television is Dead! Flippish is Here!
“Television is Dead” – this is what the people behind Flippish.com believe. With the now-easy availability of the Internet and increasing broadband speeds being offered, more people spend more time online nowadays, online entertainment is proving that it is indeed the wave of the future.
FLIPPISH is a play on the word Filipino. In the US and other countries, some Pinoys are called Flips. The word FLIPPISH could also mean something that is odd, crazy or weird.
Flippish.com is spearheaded by Chris Tan, the co-founder and Managing Director of Ideal Minds (yes, the makers of JM Rodriguez’s On Air!) and Kring Elenzano, my kabaklaan and blogger friend (who also happens to be the Creative Director of Ideal Minds and Flippish.com. Flippish.com is the first Pinoy online video channel that produces original online shows that are of broadcast quality. The people behind Flippish.com believe that it is about time that we Filipinos take on the challenge of coming up with online entertainment that is of international standards.
Flippish will tickle your funny bone (and sometimes give you a boner? lol); get you up to speed on the latest hotspots and goings-on around and outside the metro (check out their coverage of iBlog5 – when I pretty much hogged all of the running time); stimulate your brain cells with thought-provoking reality shows; and most importantly, entertain you until it becomes an essential part of your daily Internet habit!
Flippish.com will finalle be officially launched on July 2, 2009 at Fiamma (Jupiter St., Makati). For more information about the launch party (and yeah, the website and its shows), check out http://www.flippish.com
