More campaign satire

July
16

JibJab and its animated satire is back with a prod at Obama, McCain, Bush, Cheney and the rest of the 2008 elections.

You can watch Time for Some Campaignin on YouTube.

Plus American Public Radio’s Marketplace has a segment on JibJab’s marketing strategy: Online humor is a serious business.

Greg Spiridellis, a company co-founder, tells Marketplace: “The real focus for us with these big election video tent poles is to get our brand out there and also to make people aware of the other premium services that we offer.”

For $14 a year, customers can cut and paste their own digital photos into electronic cards and JibJab videos, according to Marketplace.
