An (old) Press Release v 1.1
October 2000
PRAGUE, Czech republic:
Think Magazine is an independent Prague nightlife and culture monthly dedicated to young, hip and open-minded urban readers interested in film, music, drug culture, opinion, art and politics.
With an emphasis on the unusual and irreverent, Think has expanded into a weekly television show on Prague's TV-3, a 2 hour music show on Radio Vox, and is launching their newly re-designed website this autumn.
Born in a Zizkov flat in August 1996, Think is the brainchild of Californians Jeffree Benet 33 and Keith Kirchner 34, who, bored with the formulaic franchise publications available in Prague, together shared a dream of publishing a free city magazine that would motivate, entertain, inform and inspire the young fashionable international community here.
Since then, the popular magazine has grown from a 25 page two-color first edition to the present day 62 page full color English and Czech publication.
12,000-15,000 copies of Think are distributed in more than 150 clubs, restaurants, cafes, and shops in Prague and at Think parties every month.
ThinkTV:
Launched this fall on TV-3, the new weekly broadcast of ThinkTV (Thursdays 22:45 & re-broadcast Fridays 23:45) focuses on social issues, cultural trends in music and art, as well as shopping, dining, fashion, film and what's to be discovered in the dark corners of Prague. Sponsored by Beton, ThinkTV delivers a fast-moving, informative and entertaining half-hour show that moves to the beat of a fresh and progressive soundtrack.

An organic extension of Think Magazine's classic blend of humor, news and style, ThinkTV airs a variety of segments - from the IMF-World Bank riots, to the inside of Stalin's monument, to the latest in good books, and a cafe doughnut fight downtown. ThinkTV truly offers an original look at what's happening in the city. Think Radio:
Beginning in October on Fridays at 20:15, Think hits the airwaves with a special 2 hour beat session on Radio Vox. Keith Kirchner and British DJ Chris Sadler will showcase new and progressive music and interview the best local and foreign DJs.
Think Radio will provide listeners with a unique perspective on the artists who influence and shape the world of music today.
Think Online:
Five years of Think magazine archives will soon be available online. The new site, www.think-magazine.com, will expand Think's global readership and integrate the new TV and radio branches into one interactive website.
Think plans to expand it's internet presence this year by making some Think content available on the Central European cultural portal. With the already interactive nature of Think Magazine where often readers become writers, www.think.cz shows great promise in becoming a popular web destination.
