Bonex has just launched a new social networking video-enabled website for entrepreneurs called Jippidy.com.
Jippidy is a Web 2.0 Business Directory and Community Portal where entrepreneurs and companies can advertise their businesses by uploading videos, creating and customizing their profile and interact with other users. Jippidy’s mission is to become the premier destination for internet advertising by creating a viral community where anyone regardless of size or capital endowment can compete.
For non-business users the geographically-oriented search allows to easily find promotions and attractive businesses offers. Users can also write reviews, place ads, participate in forums, make friends, upload pictures and videos, create video playlists, subscribe to promotions and other events, etc.
The website was designed to meet the following objectives: AJAX-enhanced user-centered design, user-friendly intuitive navigation and W3 standards compliance. The website allows upload of miscellaneous video assets rendered as flash video (FLV) files.
The website is built upon the LAMP platform, using the scalable Symfony framework and MySQL database.
