FLYPmedia, Break New Ground in Online Media

As many newspapers and magazines see declines in there sales due to the rapid expansion of online news and media sites one website stands taller than the others. FLYPmedia is redefining and breaking new ground in an ever changing online media market.
This website doesn't limit itself to one subject matter instead it draws people from many markets who are looking to go to one website that is easy to use and yet has a wide variety of subject matter.

Well look no further FLYPmedia is here to stay. What seems to make this website so great is the simplicity that the reader feels when navigating the website. The website flawlessly combines text, photography like any print magazine, but gives the reader the advantage of being able to flip a page with one click.

Also this media outlet stands out among the bunch because not only do they have articles with pictures to explain more about the subject matter but they use video, audio and animation to their advantage to give the reader even more information on the subject. FLYP even allows there users to search through blogs, download their podcasts or simply search their archives with ease for older articles.

I was most impressed with FLYP's music and arts section because they not only have an article about the subject but give you the option to click on an animation to here this musicians music or see a video about them. The article that really displays FLYPmedia's muscles is there interview with director David Guggenheim who recently directed It Might Get Loud about guitar greats Jack White, The Edge and Jimmy Page. This beautifully written article combines all of these elements to tell a story not only textually but visually and audibly.

There are other website magazines like Rolling Stone who have tried to be successful by using there website as a media outlet like this where an individual can find a wide variety of subject matter as well as videos and music with the article but do not have the ease and simplicity that stands behind the FLYP name. Rolling Stone watch out FLYPmedia is catching eyes and is here to stay.

  1. I agree: I love FLYPmedia...I always suggest people to go there because of their in-depth articles and multi-media approach to all facets of the topic.
    Schools and other educational websites would benefit from taking a look at how FLYP structures it's information.
