JellyBeats: The Musical Meme that Should Really Be a Snack Food

acid-house-jellyfish.jpg

Check out the JellyBeats, which are like jellyfish you can alternately identify with and fantasize about eating. Each is themed with a genre of music (folk, easy listening, acid house — wouldn’t it be funny if that whistle was a pacifier?) and comes equipped with its own playlist.

The JellyBeats represent Aardman and Digital Outlook‘s attempts to cash in on the 14-18-year-old crowd. They launched on Bebo last week. Individual JellyBeats come with film shorts, downloads, special dances and lingo. And they’re all embeddable on other social networks. (‘Cause if you can’t be everywhere at once, you FAIL.)
