LOS ANGELES–The team behind the popular JibJab series of Internet cartoons is building a new online business–a hub for people to share e-mail jokes, the animators said Friday.Speaking at The Entertainment Gathering conference here, the brothers behind JibJab Media, Evan and Gregg Spiridellis, compared their new JokeBox site to a blend of Comedy Central and MySpace. The site will encourage people to store and share the thousands of transient jokes that ordinarily spread daily across e-mail boxes, while allowing them to meet people with similar interests, they said.
