New Web-Based Service Drives Personalized Self Expression and Legal Content
Sharing Among Consumers and Professional Content Producers
DEMO FALL 2006, SAN DIEGO, Sept. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- iBloks, Inc. today
unveiled its socially innovative digital media service that enables people
to play with their media and "create like pros." iBloks raises the quality
of personal creativity by delivering an easy way to mix and remix personal
and professionally produced content including photos, videos, audio, and
text. People can then share their professional quality works of art on
personal blogs, websites such MySpace, and devices that matter most, such
as cell phones, PSPs, and video iPods.
iBloks is ushering a new era of revenue generation because it connects
professional content producers and Flash designers directly with consumers
to sell and promote their work on websites or through the iBloks service.
For iBloks, this unleashes thousands of already developed mods.
"If a picture is worth a thousand words, imagine how many an
interactive 3D experience is worth," said Julia Miller, president and CEO
of iBloks. "We are empowering people to express themselves on the devices
that matter to them the most. We've solved a major consumer pain point by
letting people easily mix and share their media across devices with just
few clicks. Just as consumers can't live without their cell phones, soon
they won't be able to live without their iBloks."
How it Works
iBloks provides a collaborative and rich media environment that
empowers people to "create like pros" and accelerates their imaginations to
bring digital masterpieces to life. iBloks unified service delivers
pre-built 3D mods, including an animated Postcard, a lively Dancing Man,
and a spinning Mobile that are enhanced with a fun and easy way to mash up,
remix, and share media. People can drag their digital media into a wide
range of mods that animate to 3D slide shows. With just a few clicks,
people can add iBloks to their MySpace website, personal blog, or iBlok
Share page, or take their creations on the road. Because people don't
always have their laptops with them, iBloks can be shared on most portable
devices, including cell phones, PSPs, and video iPods.
iBloks is free to download and available at http://www.ibloks.com . iBloks
offers free and paid content to add to the overall creative experience.
"iBloks is revolutionizing the way people play with their media. People
can unleash their creativity in ways they never dreamed they could, and
designers and creators have a new avenue for revenue generation," said
Jonathan Fram, a managing partner with Maveron and a member of the iBloks
board of directors. "This is an exciting new era of social innovation for
people and professional content producers. Digital creation will never be
the same."
"Social media is quickly becoming all about creating and sharing
personal digital media content," said Chris Shipley, executive producer of
DEMO, who hand-selects participating companies. "iBloks has created an
amazing social media experience by giving us an easy, yet exciting way to
mix and re-mix digital content to communicate and express our creative
selves. iBloks is a breakthrough and is unique in the marketplace today."
