VANCOUVER, March 22 /CNW-PRN/ - WSi Interactive Corporation is pleased to announce that it has taken a 25 per cent interest in Flashcandy.com (www.flashcandy.com). Flashcandy.com is an on-line greetings card company with rich media and unique sound-animated cards suitable for all occasions. The site will have appeal across all demographic segments. Similar online greeting card companies are: Bluemountain.com, which sold last year to Excite @Home for a value of $780 million US, and Egreetings Network.

Under the agreement WSi will be taking an active role in the creative development and management of the site. Flashcandy.com cards are all original and are being developed by creative teams which includes individuals who have worked previously on Disney animation projects. Petra Dueck, WSi's creative director for the project says, ``The creative development and execution going into Flashcandy.com is superior to anything else that is currently on the Internet'.

Flashcandy.com, with its head office in Las Vegas, Nevada, will allow WSi to further lever the investments it has made in proprietary software and broadband, convergence technologies to stream the cards to recipients.

Taking a position in Flashcandy.com is another strategic step for WSi as it rapidly moves forward with its plan of increasing assets and revenues through the development and acquisition of successful Internet businesses.
