Released on = November 14, 2006, 5:35 am

Press Release Author = Eric Cravey/Cravey Communications, Inc.

Industry = Internet & Online

Press Release Summary = Xomba is building an online community for writers of all
skill levels, from the beginner to the seasoned pro. Writers can critique each
others work and get paid using Xomba\'s unique platform of splitting the revenue from
Google Adsense.

Press Release Body = Writers from all walks of life finally have a place to call
their home on the Web.

Since conducting a 'soft launch' in August, Xomba.com has signed up more than 2,500
members in its online community, but there's room for more. From aspiring writers to
seasoned professionals, Xomba is the place where writers meet, share ideas and just
simply have fun writing. Xomba offers experienced writers an exciting opportunity to
get paid for their work as well.

"We are the premier online community for writers," said Founder Nick Veneris.
"Whether a writer is experienced or wants to try their hand at writing for the first
time, this is the place on the Internet to do just that. And after a writer feels
they are ready to move on to the next level, they can earn money for their craft."

Xomba offers a unique model for paying members of its online writing community.
Writers who want to get paid, which is voluntary, must sign up for a Google Adsense
account. Google Adsense delivers free targeted ads to members' writings, which are
called Xombytes, and pays you directly when readers click on them. Xomba
automatically rotates ownership of the ads so revenue can be split on a 50/50 basis.

Currently, Xomba offers 45 categories from which to post members' writing. The
Fiction and Poetry category currently has more entries than any other section. Other
popular categories include Arts, Family & Home, and Religion & Beliefs. Whether
writers are looking to start a blog, write 'How To' articles or share the poems
they've been writing for years, Xomba is the place to start.

Using the slogan "Show and Tell Has Never Been So Rewarding," Xomba also allows its
members to interact, share writing tips and critique each other's works in a
constructive manner. "The overall goal is to build an online community of people who
simply love to write," said Veneris.

ABOUT XOMBA: Launched in August 2006, Xomba's mission is to create a thriving
community of Xombees who earn profit from their work. We recognize there are
numerous sites allowing individuals the chance to publish their original content,
but keep all of the ad revenue. To us, this seems like an archaic practice that has
given way to the continuing advancements of Web 2.0. Combining key elements from
social networking sites, weblogs and contextual targeted advertising, we have
created a community that is a nurturing environment for anyone willing to post and
share their own ideas. It is our hope that our Xombees will develop into successful
contributors to the publishing industry. For more information on Xomba, go to
