JibJab Appearance

to fame during the 2004 U.S. presidential election with videos like “The Land,” has created a new video series called the “The News” and has decided to include some bloggers. Blogger and friend Mike Arrington is featured with bloggers Robert Scoble and Chris Pirillo around the 1:20 mark of the video below. If you squint while watching, you might catch a glimpse of my face in the crowd of people. [IMG]

featured as part of the only 3% of Americans that can point to Kabul on a map (my guess is that they cheated and did an online search). It’s pretty cool to see your friends immortalized in something as infamous JibJab. Here’s more from Mike and Chris.

Congrats on the appearance!

Just saw that video on CNN’s headline news!!

[...] And it’s exactly what the Jib Jab guys are mocking with their catchy video (thanks to Chris, who apparently knows where Kabul is): [...]

I watched Jay Leno last night, watched the Jib Jab film and I thought I was seeing “weird” when I say you on there. I told my husband, I think that’s Chris. Coool congrats

amazing. as is your blog header.

brilliant, i loved that video

AHA! I saw that on CNN while waiting in the airport yesterday (I’m at another airport right now, sigh) and I swore it looked like you. But I figured distance from the screen and airport fatigue had fooled me.

Very cool.

You join an elite group, my son … Coke, Jello, Band-Aid, and Pirillo. You now personify what you represent … the veritable embodiment of geek.
