RedMedia : Web + Events

Redmedia Solutions, Inc., a digital brand and relationship marketing company is proud to announce its completion of another Web 2.0 project – the Air21 Express website (www.air21express.com.ph). Air21 Express is a professional basketball team currently playing in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) owned and managed by leading logistics solutions provider, Airfreight 2100.

The Air21 Express website has an amazing array of Web 2.0 features that allows user-generated content and information sharing. Technologies such as blogs, RSS, social networking, AJAX, player photo galleries were employed in building the website. Fans of Air21 Express can post comments and their views about the team and their favorite player while connecting with other fans alike.

The Air 21 Express website was modeled after www.inboundpass.com, a website owned and operated by Redmedia specifically covering Philippine College Basketball. Inboundpass.com has a wider scope of Web 2.0 tools such as videos, podcasts and widgets for live scoring and stats.

“The Air 21 Express site can be compared to a National Basketball Association (NBA) team website. It is by far the best Philippine sports related site I’ve ever seen”, said PBA Anchor and Analyst Mr. Charlie Cuna.

According to Redmedia Managing Partner, Michael Abasolo that “the main idea of the site is to build a community were Air21 Express fans can express and share their common passions about their favorite team, player, and especially, basketball”.

/>Abasolo added that, “one of the fundamental highlights of Web 2.0 is sharing information, because, ultimately, sharing is good. Businesses, whether large or SME, should learn from this experience and harness the power of the Internet to communicate and interact with their customers. We believe that Air21 Express is a breakthrough in echoing the power of Web 2.0 and how the Internet is shaping the business landscape”.

Air 21 Express’ distinctive photo gallery and site design was made possible thru Redmedia’s fusion of creative people such as award winning photographer, Jorem Catilo, a controversial Internet sports reporter, Josef Ramos and a promising make-up and grooming services upstart, Pebbles Lichauco.
