You know her. You’ve seen her. We know her. We’ve seen her. And she loves us. Yea, that’s right. See if you can get your own personalized video from Obama Girl aka Amber Lee Ettinger.
So anyway, Obama Girl and Barely Political creator Ben Relles, along with Next New Networks, have launched Barely Digital, a technology comedy site which will feature shows, product reviews, and comedy sketches, bringing satire to the world of technology.
Explaining things a bit further, Next Networks CEO Lance Podell said, “In 2008, Barely Political set records and won millions of fans by satirizing the media’s infatuation with politics. It was clearly the breakout online video property of the year. With Barely Digital, we’re taking the same creative talent and applying it to the tech scene, which like politics, is another huge focus area of pop culture and media that’s ripe for parody. Barely Digital is our first new network to launch in 2009, and we believe it will quickly become a very popular source for tech humor and entertainment.”
Obama Girl to take on tech? Uh oh. We think tech babe Justine Ezarik might have something to say about this. Who knows, maybe Justine will challenge Obama Girl to a hair-pulling video thrown down to kick Obama Girl’s ass back to Washington .
