JibJab's become known for their funny/relevant "Year in Review" videos, so I'm pleased to announce that 2010's version—featuring puppets of President Obama and Vice President Biden singing a lamentation of the sh*tty year that was—doesn't disappoint. Watch inside.

Unlikely, save for one determined Atlanta fan with a taste for hip-hop cartoons. Superdeluxe's staff was laid off in May, but it took the Time Warner subsidiary seven months to move a small portion of its video library over to AdultSwim.com and shut the site down.

When I said Silicon Valley needed more show tunes, I should have been more specific. In journalism, the cliche is that two's a coincidence, three's a trend. But as Liz Gannes at NewTeeVee points out, when it comes to year-end wrapups as musical numbers, three may well be a cliche. JibJab, WallStrip, and the Richter Scales all produced look-back videos to the tune of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire."

Animated comedy site JibJab has raised $3 million in a second round of funding from Polaris Venture Partners. JibJab, the faux-paper animation studio run by a pair of brothers, hit the scene with a parody of "Our Land" featuring John Kerry and George W. Bush. They've since gone on to make dozens more animations. There's even a cartoon generator into which you can insert a friend's — or, say, a journalist's — picture. The original "Our Land" video is after the jump.

Larry Kramer, founder of the MarketWatch stock-news site now owned by Dow Jones, has joined Polaris Venture Partners as a senior advisor. The firm's portfolio includes online-media companies like JibJab and Heavy. [LinkedIn]
