Welcome to Sosy

SOSY is urban Filipino slang for sosyal (sociable, gregarious), tongue in cheek, and taas kilay (eyebrows arched). This newest section of Global Nation has been conceived as a grab bag for the original, the outstanding, and the cutting edge.

“Original” will define Sosy, so it will be far from limited to the upper crust of a creative people who share a fascination for the new, if not its progenitor. It all comes with a genius for improvising and winging it – both a virtue and vice, as we all know too well.

Sosy makes equal room for new journalism, literature and their counterparts in the sciences, culture (jokes and survival mechanisms included) – and yes, the Pinoy blogosphere a-bloom with the sosy.

So join the party, tertulia, happening, sacred ritual, gimik – call it what you like, so long as you enjoy and learn from it.
