FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:WebsitesForHeroes.com Makes Love Connection for Soldier in IraqMississippi family shares love on Valentine’s Day with slideshows, videos, and messages thanks to new technology from DigitalPost Interactive IRVINE, CA, Feb 20, 2007 – DigitalPost Interactive (OTCBB: DGLP), a provider of easy-to-use web platforms for digital media sharing and social networking, is happy to announce the latest success from WebsitesForHeroes.com, a nationwide program that helps America’s overseas troops stay connected with their families by providing free family websites. Using DigitalPost Interactive’s unique compression technology, Mr. and Mrs. Galvez were able to show their love online this Valentine’s Day with rich videos, photos, and messages on their personal family site – even though Mr. Galvez was stationed more than 7,000 miles away in Iraq. The event was featured on WLOX-TV, an ABC affiliate in Southern Mississippi, and can be viewed at http://www.digitalpostx.com/WLOX.php. When he logged into the family’s site, Mr. Galvez was greeted warmly with a special slideshow that featured all new photos of his wife and children, and pictures of the homemade Valentine’s Day cards they crafted for him earlier that day. Afterwards, he and his wife exchanged words of affection on the family’s message board, and he used the site to catch up on the latest happenings back home, viewing new messages, photos, and video clips of his 18-month old son, Zachary’s precious first words. “The site is unbelievably easy to use, and it allows us to keep in touch in ways that we haven't been able to before," said Mrs. Galvez. "Phone calls are too short, and letters take too long to get there. But WebsitesForHeroes.com lets us share the daily events in our lives, even though he’s a world away." WebsitesForHeroes.com is a joint effort by two California patriots – Terry Gniffke of Caliber Media, a former Marine and Vietnam veteran, and Michael Sawtell, CEO of DigitalPost Interactive, a provider of advanced family website technology (www.thefamilypost.com) – to keep military families connected and to inspire hope during difficult times. The site allows the American public to sponsor custom family websites for our troops serving overseas, so they always have a piece of home when they need it most. “We’re extremely happy to be working with DigitalPost Interactive to help families like the Galvez’s who sacrifice a part of their lives each and every day to serve our country,” said Terry Gniffke, CEO of Caliber Media Group. “As a former Marine myself, I know just how important it is to keep that family connection alive. These sites are a vital link for today’s military families, and we’d like to thank the American public for their continued support of this important family program.” For more information on sponsoring a military family for this program, please visit www.websitesforheroes.org.
