(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 03, 2001 ) To honor mothers worldwide, VideoShare, Inc., a leading provider of Internet-based streaming video communications technologies, and Excite@Home's (Nasdaq: ATHM), Blue Mountain.com, the Web's leading e-card provider, will enable families to send free video greeting cards to mothers, grandmothers and friends this Mother's Day. While not every son, daughter or loved one can travel home to be with Mom for the special day, anyone can use VideoShare's streaming video technology, and Blue Mountain.com's free e-card service to send their mother a personalized video clip -- the next best thing to saying "Happy Mother's Day" in person.

This year, Americans will spend more than $210 million sending paper greeting cards through the mail to celebrate Mother's Day, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. But those who send video greetings and e-cards with VideoShare and BlueMountain.com can send their Mother's Day wishes for free and personalize their e-cards with video footage. Whether a user sends video clips from a party, school play or a heart-felt Mother's Day message, VideoShare's technology makes it possible for mothers to receive videos from loved ones via the Internet.

"VideoShare is built upon the premise that video communication is more personal and effective than words on paper. Whether we are empowering businesses or consumers to better communicate with others, VideoShare's technology helps people stay connected," said Gad Liwerant, CEO and president of VideoShare. "This Mother's Day, countless mothers will be able to see and hear their distant loved ones' video well wishes thanks to VideoShare and BlueMountain.com's e-cards." VideoShare and BlueMountain.com's "My Videos," http://videoshare.bluemountain.com allows users to personalize their messages by adding video to their online greeting cards. The VideoShare Producer(TM) software makes it easy for everyone to create and share videos over the Internet using a PC camera or camcorder. E-card senders can import existing video clips to send to friends and loved ones. For those who do not own a video capture device, a previously recorded Mother's Day video greeting is available at http://www.bluemountain.com/eng3/video/VIDseasonal.html.
