JIBJABDECLARES WAR ON E-CARDS!

World famous Internet creative studiotakes aim
at online greetings with the launch of JibJab Sendables™

VENICE, CA—October 24th, 2007—JibJab, the Internet comedy pioneers behind more viral video hits than any other independent or traditional entertainment studio, today announced that it is entering the online greetings business with the launch of JibJab Sendables™. (

“E-cardstoday are lame,” said JibJab co-founders and brothers Evan and Gregg Spiridellis. “We’re working with the best storytellers and artists in the world to give people an alternative to the dancing bears and bunnies they’llfind on competitors’ websites.”

There are over 200 JibJab Sendablesgreetings available at launch with topics ranging from birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries, to less traditional categories like flirts and disses. Prices range from $0.50 to $3 each and, for a limited time only, the company is giving away $5 of free promotional credits to everyone who signs up for an account at

“Therehas been an explosion of online communication channels and an absence of quality programming to help people better express themselves,” said the JibJab brothers. “We intend to fill that gap by combining our experience producing for the web with our network of exceptionally talented writers and artists.”

JibJabSendables™ is the company’s second venture outside the realm of political satire and viral videos. In August 2007, they launched ‘Starring You!™’ which enables users to upload photosof themselves and put their heads into JibJabmovies. Since then, people have uploaded and cut out over 1.3million headsand spent over 10 million minutes (nearly 20 years) using the application. CNET’s News.com dubbed it “The Greatest Office Time-Waster in History”.

JibJab has been innovating digital programming and distribution for the past eight years. They have entered distribution partnerships with Yahoo! and MSN, produced branded entertainment for Anheuser-Busch and Verizon Wireless, and premiered ten videos on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”. In March 2007, they premiered a media satire, entitled “What We Call the News”, in front of the President of the United States at the Radio and Television Correspondents Dinner in Washington, DC. The company recently closed a Series B funding with Polaris Venture Partners.
