2009 is coming to a close, which means it’s time to reflect on the  
events that shaped the last twelve months. And there’s nothing like a  
whirlwind animated musical to put everything into perspective. Cue  
JibJab, which has just released their annual Year In Review: a two  
minute video romp that recaps the last year in all its glory. The  
video is packed will everything from momentous events like the  
induction of our first black President to moments of unparalleled  
stupidity (Balloon Boy). Even Three Wolf Moon made the cut.

This is the fifth year that JibJab has produced their Year In Review,  
and we’re told it will be seeing airtime on a number of national  
television networks tomorrow. For those wondering how the video was  
made, the company has put together a thorough blog post detailing its  
production.

Aside from the video, CEO Gregg Spiridellis tells us that JibJab is  
having a very strong holiday season. The entertainment portal, which  
offers customizable Flash videos, greeting cards, and a variety of  
other content, drew 33 million unique visitors in the last month  
according to Quantcast. Spiridellis adds that the site has served 90  
million video views this quarter alone (which was likely helped in  
part by its always popular ElfYourself feature).
