FountainHead Networks Launches Online Video Entertainment Network Featuring Original Content at OnMedia NYC Conference in New York, NY

Creates Five New Internet Video Shows Designed for Young Adults

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- FountainHeadNetworks.TV (http://www.fountainheadnetworks.tv/), an innovative Internet Entertainment Television company, announced today the launch of its Network and five new shows. FHN features original short-form video shows for distribution via the Internet, TV and to mobile devices. FHN creates, distributes, and monetizes professional quality episodic video channels over the Internet. FountainHeadNetworks.TV is creating a wide range of original short-form video shows by focusing on entertainment, news and lifestyle shows that are informative, edgy, funny, and relevant to young adults. FountainHeadNetworks' shows will be available on YouTube, Blip.tv, and as Apple iTunes Podcasts for iPhone and PC.

"FountainHead Networks was founded to meet the needs of the YouTube generation who watch online video daily," said Vincent Schiavone, FHN's CEO. "This age group relies on internet video for news and entertainment and FountainHead delivers it in the style this age group can relate to."

"Beginning with five shows, FountainHead will deliver dozens of shows in 2008," said Schiavone. "Today, viewers can now access their own personal chef, fashion guru, and astrologist through their mobile devices and computers. Tomorrow they will be able to get daily news, weather, sports and lifestyle content on our Network. Our goal is to be viewable everywhere, including TV networks, over the Internet, and on mobile devices."

The five new shows are Stock Rockets (www.StockRockets.TV), Cosmic Sky (www.CosmicSky.TV), Encanto en Las Estrellas (www.EncantoEnLasEstrellas.TV), 2 Minute Chef (www.2MinuteChef.TV), and Must Love Wine (www.MustLoveWine.TV).

StockRockets.TV is an Internet show about the hottest stocks making headlines every week. Barbie Hargrave is the sophisticated and dynamic host who takes a fresh and informative look at the stocks on Wall Street. She makes stocks fun and interesting for this new generation of investors.

CosmicSky.TV is an Internet horoscope show that tells you what the stars have in store for you every week. Host Jessah Diaz gives you the scoop on relationships, love, friends, family, work and play. This is not your mother's horoscope. Jessah is fresh and sparkles as the host with her insights on daily life.

EncantoEnLasEstrellas.TV (Enchantment in the Stars) is also an Internet horoscope show, but geared towards the Hispanic audience. Host Andrelly Lopez is charming and passionate as she gives us a lively look at love, life, relationships, and careers.

2MinuteChef.TV is a show for busy young adults who need to cook a meal on- the-go. Rachel Platt and Will Buckley are the duo demonstrating innovative and tasty meals that can be prepared in two minutes. Rachel is the warm and lovely host learning from Chef Will as he quickly and efficiently prepares a delicious meal.

MustLoveWine.TV is a show sharing an intimate look into the best wines for less than $20. Host Filiberto Magnati, the youngest and hippest sommelier in the U.S., gives you the "bottle" heads-up for any social event.

"FountainHead is different from the current on-line aggregators of video content," said Schiavone. "We created our own studio so we could control the content from concept through all aspects of production to distribution and provide a better experience for our viewers and advertisers alike."

Melissa Shusterman, a veteran producer and director of MTV, VH1, FX and the Food Networks, is the President of FountainHead Studios. Ms. Shusterman said, "We will deliver content that is professional quality, entertaining, and captivating to encourage interaction with our viewers."
