Press Release Summary: Premiere Online Community for People Living With or Touched
by Disability Employs Disaboom Community Members in Newly Launched Sales Force

Press Release Body: Denver, CO - June 16, 2008 - According to the U.S. Census
Bureau, 67 percent of people with disabilities are unemployed, making them the
largest unemployed population in America. To create employment opportunities for
this population, Disaboom (OTCBB: DSBO; www.disaboom.com), the largest online
community designed for people touched by disabilities, has taken a unique step by
hiring its own online community members. Perhaps a first in the world of social
networking, Disaboom is offering its members jobs to help build the Marketplace for
products and services that serve their own community. Disaboom's new program, the
Marketplace Opportunity Brokers, enables Disaboom members and others the opportunity
to earn significant commissions by selling business listings to local and national
businesses and organizations that the community members know are accessible and
supportive of people touched by disabilities.

"People touched by disabilities represent a large percentage of the unemployed
population in America. These are individuals with the talent and the motivation,
but often require jobs that are flexible and accessible - jobs that meet their
unique lifestyles," said Dr. Glen House, founder of Disaboom. "The Disaboom
Marketplace Opportunity Broker program offers people touched by disability the
unique opportunity to be employed on their own terms. They can work from their
home, when they are able, and sell as much or as little as they'd like."

To date, more than 350 Disaboom members have signed up to become Marketplace
Opportunity Brokers or MOB team members, and this freelance sales force continues to
grow daily. Disaboom MOB team members can earn commissions for selling ads in
Disaboom's Marketplace Business Listings in the following categories: Fitness and
Physical Therapy; Health and Food Products; Healthcare Professionals; Home
Accessibility; Medical Services; Medical Supplies; Rehabilitation; Sports and
Entertainment; Transportation; Wheelchairs/Mobility; and Other Services. The team
members are then awarded 33 percent of the total revenue gained from each sale plus
a 5% bonus on their gross sales when they sell six or more listings in a month.
They will also continue to earn an annuity on each business that relists every year.

"This is really historic: a job with an online community that in turn helps the
community itself," said House. "People touched by disabilities are looking for a
resource where they can find businesses that understand their preferences and
purchase decisions, and Disaboom's Marketplace serves as a one-stop shop, whether it
is for adaptable equipment or just dinner and a movie."

Becoming a MOB team member is simple. To apply, members must first join Disaboom
and then complete a short application and a W9 form on the site. A personalized
sales page will be created that will provide MOB team members with all of the tools
they need including sales tips and training, marketing collateral, letterhead and
business card templates, and a weekly newsletter.

Members also become part of a nationwide team of brokers, and can connect with other
brokers through a MOB group and MOB forum on Disaboom.com, read and post blogs with
sales tips and MOB updates, ask questions of other MOB members and get in touch with
fellow brokers in their area.
