Adapting to online learning is a lengthy process, and both students and teachers would need the appropriate support while navigating the new normal.

Flipidea (pronounced as “flee-pee-dia”) was created for this very purpose.

An online DaaS (Data-as-a-Service) platform that’s currently free for all, Flipidea records the businesses that went kaput, listing down the reasons for their shutdowns with a concise explanation of the mistakes that led to their demise.

“Put simply, we study business failures,” said Paul Lee, its co-founder.

With all the ideas pouring in—either from the net or from family and friends—it’s frighteningly easy to be overwhelmed, and planning for your wedding suddenly seems less exciting and more burdensome.

Furthermore,
