“Digital Life pulls from MSNBC.com’s strengths to create a feature that is user friendly, interesting, interactive and relevant to the consumer,” said Dean Wright, Editor-in-Chief of MSNBC.com. “We’ve taken content normally found in text only and presented it in a smart, interactive way.”

Digital Life is exclusively sponsored by Best Buy, through an 11-month agreement with exclusive advertising rights, and launched May 1, 2005 at www.digitallife.msnbc.com.

“Through ingenuity and great collaboration we have created a product that has yielded the single largest sponsorship of any feature in the history of MSNBC.com,” said Kyoo Kim, Vice President of Sales of MSNBC.com, “proof once again, that advertisers understand the power of the Internet and are using online leaders like MSNBC.com to reach their key consumers.”
