- Zippie is a term used to describe a person who does something for nothing, i.e. zip. Any supporter of free culture, free food, free books, free software is a zippie. The origin of the word is an evolution of the term yippie, which was coined by the Youth International Party in the 1960s. In subsequent years, zippie became a term used to describe a 1990s technoperson, in contradiction to yuppie. The modern incarnation of zippies were an attempt by Fraser Clark and others, to create a unique subculture that combined the 1990s techno hemisphere with the 1960s earth person. Various incarnations of zippies exist, usually armed with smiley badges and outspokenly anti-Yuppie. They are mainly found in China and Japan, where various youth groups have taken up the banner left behind by the earlier groupings.
