MIAMI, Feb. 9, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dolphin Digital Media, Inc.
(OTCBB:DPDM) (http://www.dolphindigitalmedia.com), a creator of secure
social networking websites for children utilizing state-of the-art
fingerprint identification technology, is pleased to announce the
launch of group functionality within "Dolphin Surf" on the Dolphin
Secure network.

"Our ability to offer children's organizations a safe way for their
children to chat online will be a game-changer," states Bill O'Dowd,
CEO of Dolphin Digital Media. "Currently, websites for children's
organizations cater to the parents, not the children. They only provide
basic information, with no interactivity, because passwords simply
don't work to protect children online. They can be too easily shared,
stolen or guessed. We've looked for a single example of a school
website that allows live chat, and we haven't found one. When was the
last time you saw a child go onto the site of any extracurricular
activity? The reason they don't go is because there is nothing for them
to do, and what they most want to do is chat with their friends."

Dolphin Secure (http://www.dolphinsecure.com) is a revolutionary online
safety product, which requires a fingerprint log-in by every child to
access the Internet from the home computer, thereby ensuring that the
parent's guidelines for where that child can go, and who that child can
talk to, while online are followed. Every child registered in the
Dolphin Secure system is automatically granted admission into the
groundbreaking social network, "Dolphin Surf," which becomes their home
page (i.e., where they go after they supply their fingerprint swipe)
and which features full social interactivity including instant
messaging and photo sharing -- all under the protection of the Dolphin
Secure system. With the launch of groups, Dolphin Surf invites all
children's organizations (e.g., schools, little leagues, after-school
programs, charitable organizations, etc.) to create their own
mini-sites within Dolphin Surf.

Any group will have the ability to upload content such as videos and
photos to the group page, send out messages to the whole group, write
on an individual member's "wall," create a calendar, schedule events,
and much more. Of course, the group sites have the full instant
messaging capability that is a revolutionary aspect of Dolphin Secure,
thereby allowing the children to chat live with each other while
viewing the group's site. For the first time, a children's organization
can safely create their own environment with full online interactivity
occurring by their children.

"Imagine a Little League site where children can watch and post photos
and videos from last weekend's games, all while talking to teammates
live from the site," continues Mr. O'Dowd. "And, imagine adding a
fantasy sports element to the site, wherein the children can actually
instant message each other to trade players. Or a school site that
offers live homework help. Or a national dance organization site that
posts competition or instructional videos and offers live chat for boys
and girls around the country. The possibilities are as endless as the
ways you can imagine children benefitting from the ability to safely
chat live while online."

A group mini-site can be established in five easy steps from the Group
Dashboard within Dolphin Secure, and was designed to be used just as
easily by the technical novice as by the technical expert. Furthermore,
Dolphin Surf offers different levels of privacy for any group,
including: (1) Open: where any child within Dolphin Surf can join
(e.g., a "fan club" started by a child in support of a favorite
television show); or (2) Semi-Private: where a group administrator can
set parameters for who can join their group, such as age range or
gender (e.g., a particular Little League Division only open to boys and
girls twelve and under); or (3) Private: where a group administrator
will have to review and approve each individual who requests to join
the group (e.g., a specific Little League team).
