Not everybody may be all agog over Flow Communications, but the company sure sure knows how to entertain.

The digital world came to the Jamaica Pegasus on Thursday, April 10, as Flow hosted a second anniversary/appreciation reception. The lounge area looked like a movie set in the 24th century, and the whole event had an other-worldly feel, from the outfits of the ushers to the electronic guestbook where, instead of scribbling their names, guests got to type their information in. What else can you expect from a company that from day one has promised cutting-edge stuff?

The presentations after the cocktails were just as innovative, one showing the history of broadcast technology from the birth of radio to the introduction of high-definition television.

What next?

The second big screen presentation demonstrated how Flow works and some of the products that make the company so attractive to viewers.

CEO of Flow Jamaica, Richard Pardy, gushed, "We can't thank you enough." He said that in its two years, Flow was now bringing cable service to over 70,000 homes, and the phone service is also shaping up quite nicely, with about a million and a half calls coming in a day. What will they do next?

Guests included: Honduran Ambassador Jose Eduardo Norris, Colombian Ambassador Dr Ventura Emilio Diaz Mejia, John Risley, Brendan Paddick, Michelle English, Wayne and Diana Chen, Andrew Issa, Gary Neita and Kirk Grayson.
