SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 3, 2004--The camera phone moblog company textamerica is excited to announce that the world's first music video shot entirely on a camera phone is now available for viewing at http://www.textamerica.com.


"This takes video moblogging to a new level," said textamerica Founder Chris Hoar. "Now any group or band with a video-enabled camera phone can make and post their own music videos direct to their moblog online, and at textamerica that also means that their video will get global exposure," he said.

The video, called "Haber Get Down" from the upcoming album "Late Night at Denny's," was produced by the group XFYA and can be seen at http://ghettron.textamerica.com/?r=455355. It was shot on location in San Diego by the group themselves, Steve, Dave, Kim & Shaun.

The video has already been viewed over 1000 times in less than 24 hours at no cost to the video's producers.

"For entertainers on a budget who are looking for a start in the music or film business, textamerica is the perfect platform," said Hoar. "We believe that this particular music video will encourage a lot more creative talent to take a serious look at the ever growing capabilities of camera phones and moblogging."
