Subject: Tidbit - JARED, Blockbuster, & The Mac.

This tidbit is from:

We thought people might be interested to know that JARED: Butcher of
Song, our Mac freeware phenomenon has been licensed to Blockbuster Video
for a national television ad campaign. The story of how the TV spots were
produced is also a nice anecdote of the Mac's ubiquity...

- - We, (Freeverse Software), created JARED on and for the Mac community.
Five of our six shareware games are Mac first/Mac only.

- - Young & Rubicam, Blockbuster's ad agency, discovered JARED on all the
Macs in their creative department and pitched the idea of using him for
the new TV spots.

- - The art director for the TV spots turned out to be a JARED fan with
JARED permanently installed on his Mac.

- - McHale-Barone inc., the Mac-based sound studio where the spots were
dubbed, already had JARED on all their machines as well.

- - The spots are scheduled to air first on MTV, where we already know from
fan letters, that JARED and the Macintosh are happily residing.

If you haven't seen JARED yet, you can download him from our web site at
WWW.FREEVERSE.COM and if you like the JARED spots, do us a favor and
please let Blockbuster know at <Customer.service@blockbuster.com>

That way we can afford to keep making Mac shareware games like Hearts
Deluxe and Burning Monkey Solitaire. :-)
