Press Release Summary = How a 21 year-old Brit college student created an innovative
advertising technology that is taking the world by storm

Press Release Body = It all started a few months ago in Britain when 21 year-old
Alex Tew had a brainstorm. To raise money for college, he decided to sell tiny ad
spaces on his web site - a hundred \"pixels\" at a time. Although most people
wouldn\'t recognize a \"pixel\" if it jumped up and hit them in the face, Alex is a
whiz kid who had done his homework. He knew that pixels are tiny dot-sized chunks
of color and light that make it possible to see what you see on a computer monitor
screen.

Alex decided to divide the monitor screen into 10,000 small squares, each containing
100 pixels, and to sell advertising space for $100 per square. By clicking on the
advertiser\'s logo appearing in one square - or in a larger logo appearing in
brilliant color on a whole bunch of adjacent squares, the advertiser\'s entire web
site pops up at the speed of light. The potential customer or client is thereby
treated to all the good things the advertiser has to offer.

It worked! Beginning with relatives and friends who bought hundreds or multiple
hundreds of pixels, word spread rapidly. Media people found out about it and
exciting headlines appeared. Within two weeks Alex had sold $40,000 worth of ad
space. As of the end of January, 2006, Alex is getting 600,000 to 700,000 visitors
per month. His grand total take stands at about $625,000 and growing.

Copycats leaped on the bandwagon. If Alex could do it, so could they. Alex doesn\'t
own cyberspace, so there\'s no copyright restriction. The pixel advertising craze
has taken off in great style and fury, and is still in its infancy. The outlook is
bright because so many advertisers are reaping marvelous results in terms of
increased sales.

The pixel craze is riding high into the future and there appears to be no end in sight.
