IRVINE, Calif. -- PumpTop TV, a nationwide digital media network located at the pump, is bringing a world of personal fashion and style to gas stations across the country with original content from StyleCaster, an "online personal style discovery platform," www.stylecaster.com. The ongoing series of 30-second video fashion trends is part of the PumpTop Network's effort to provide its 12 million viewers with engaging and informative custom content that cannot be found anywhere else.

StyleCaster integrates content, shopping and community to create an experience personalized to each and every user. StyleCaster's executive fashion director, Carol Han, will be presenting the latest in fashion and style trends in the 30-second spots.

As viewers enjoy the StyleCaster videos, they will also be exposed to adjacent banners filled with extra information such as where to buy and how to wear certain fashions. The surrounding banners serve as value-added content to any video or text shown on the main screen. The StyleCaster spots reflect PumpTop TV's position to enrich video content with creative, functionally rich banners highlighting the interactive capabilities of digital networks.

Doug Woo, executive vice president of AdtekMedia, the parent company of PumpTop TV, said "PumpTop TV and StyleCaster are very synergistic when it comes to taking advantage of digital content. We are both experimenting with all the new digital applications in order to captivate our wide audiences wherever and whenever possible. We hope more and more content providers will realize the enormous opportunities PumpTop TV provides once they see how StyleCaster applied their talent to our video network."

Ari Goldberg, founder and CEO of StyleCaster, said, "The future of new media is based on distributed content that can be seen on multiple platforms. Whether it's a 2-inch screen, a 20-inch screen or a 200-inch screen, StyleCaster is creating engaging content that provides utility for style enthusiasts as we continue to democratize fashion."
