Lifestyle Video Content Provider WatchMojo.com Celebrates One-Year Anniversary with Wireless Partnership with Versaly Entertainment and Sprint

WatchMojo.com, the leading producer of original, entertaining and informative video content for the wireless and web markets, and Versaly Entertainment's VMBC.tv network have partnered to bring WatchMojo.com's content to Fast Lane, a free MVOD channel available through the Sprint network on channel 61 and also in the Lifestyles category.

Montreal, QC (PRWeb) February 9, 2007 -- http://www.WatchMojo.com the leading producer of original, entertaining and informative video content for the wireless and web markets, and Versaly Entertainment's VMBC.tv network have partnered to bring WatchMojo.com's content to Fast Lane, a free MVOD channel available through the Sprint network on channel 61 and also in the Lifestyles category. Other content on Fast Lane includes CNET's Tech Reviews, Poker Tips and Tricks, FJ vs. Baja 1000, Full Force Fighting, Viral Comedy, Xtreme, Fear No Sports, amongst others.

WatchMojo.com -- who celebrated its one year anniversary in February, 2007 -- has grown to become one of the largest producers of video content for the Web and handheld devices. WatchMojo.com was founded by a former Internet advertising executive to satisfy marketers' desire to advertise alongside video content without having to rely on user-generated or user-attributed content, which has presented copyright and quality challenges to advertisers and publishers.

As such, http://www.WatchMojo.com owns all of the rights to the library of 4,000 video clips it has produced since launching in January 2006. Its programming of entertaining and informative video content spans across a wide array of categories that marketers look to advertise along, such as Cars, Education, Fashion, Film, Food, Gambling, Health, Music, Politics & Economy, Space, Sports, Technology and Travel. In addition to video content, the company also publishes and aggregates other types of content, including contests, top 10 lists and blogs and manages a network of vertical search products through http://www.MetaMojo.com.

http://www.WatchMojo.com has become an overnight -- or over year -- leader in the booming video space by publishing 4,000 1 to 3 minute clips in one short year, an average of over 10 per day.

"We spent 2006 focusing on becoming a leader in online video programming, and we are confident that we are in the unique position of offering viewers and advertisers the most diverse and complete library of original, proprietary and high-quality video programming on the Web. 2007 is all about building on our lead on the Web and moving aggressively into the mobile market by offering wireless entertainment on handheld devices," explains WatchMojo.com's President Ashkan Karbasfrooshan, whose career includes stints as an author, interviewer, marketing specialist, radio and TV host and sales executive.

Karbasfrooshan is currently at his third successful Internet startup, with his first one being a publicly traded search engine on the Nasdaq and the second one being a successful publisher in the men's online magazine space that was acquired in 2005, returning the investor 27 times the invested capital despite the Nasdaq bursting and the toughest advertising market since the Great Depression.

A unit of the privately-held Mojo Supreme network, WatchMojo.com has positioned itself to profit from both the booming online advertising and mobile content markets.

- Online advertising is slated to become a $40 bilion market by 2010 in the US alone (Morgan Stanley, eMarketer and PriceWaterhouseCoopers).
- The worldwide mobile content market will grow from $16.7 billion in 2003 to $78 billion by 2007 (Research and Markets).
- The value of general mobile ad spending in the US will rise from $410 million in 2006 to $4.4 billion in 2011 (eMarketer).

When you consider that there are more wireless subscribers than Internet users (224 million wireless subscribers compared to 207 million Internet users), it's not surprising to find out that mobile is the fastest-growing new content platform in history.
