Nickelodeon Vets Debut BatteryPOP, A Kid-Safe, Kid-Programmed Online Network

batterypop-logoYouTube may be a popular destination for kids, but parents know that it's not a kid-friendly one.

That's why two Nickelodeon vets have created BatteryPOP - an online and mobile destination where children ages six to eleven can safely browse through cartoons, comedy, music videos and more, sending their favorites to the top of the heap by "popping" them - a mechanism which could one day pave the way to make BatteryPOP a farm league for the major networks, like Nick or the Cartoon Channel, for example.
