HandHeld Entertainment, Inc., the makers of portable media players like the ZVUE 250 above and owners of various content sites (Putfile.com, YourDailyMedia.com, FunMansion.com™, Dorks.com™, ZVUE.com™) has added another user-generated humor website to its business. UnOriginal.co.uk is a unique site wherein the submitted content are made up of clips of originals edited for humorous effect.
Jeff Oscodar, president and chief executive officer of HandHeld Entertainment, explains HandHeld’s plans: “With the acquisition of UnOriginal.co.uk, HandHeld Entertainment now has three Web sites based in Europe, with two of those sites based in England, making us one of the top providers of user-generated comedy content in the United Kingdom and Europe.
“This acquisition represents another step toward reaching our goal of becoming a global media company that provides great content to 18-35 years olds around the world. Additionally, we believe that we can easily leverage our library of more than 500,000 user-generated videos and other media to dramatically expand the library at UnOriginal.co.uk, making it even more attractive to visitors throughout Europe, as well as the rest of the world.”
On the UnOriginal.co.uk side, founder had this to say Gareth Coote: “The crazy, fun videos found on UnOriginal.co.uk are the perfect fit for those users who already frequent the HandHeld network of Web sites.”
The UnOriginal.co.uk came just three weeks after the Dorks.com acquisition by HandHeld.
