Press Release Body = Vouchon is pleased to announce its public unveiling as it sheds
its beta drapery. A new community platform, Vouchon is a place to go to seek advice
and recommendations from people who have been there or done that before. More than
questions and vouches, Vouchon is about people relating to each other, sharing
knowledge and experiences.

Ryan Stewart, co-founder of Vouchon, recently found himself in Bangor, ME on
business and wondering where to have dinner. \"Bangor is a beautiful city in a
beautiful state. I knew there had to be great food there; I just didn\'t know how to
find it,\" says Stewart. \"I was looking for an enthusiastic recommendation. I wanted
someone to say, \'I\'ve been there, experienced it, and it was great. You should
experience it too.\'\"

That thought stayed with Stewart and he decided to build a website where people
could ask for and provide recommendations, not just on food, but on anything. In
fall of 2006, Stewart partnered up with Noel Ruiz, programmer and entrepreneur, to
build Vouchon. The pair who live on either side of the country and had never met
prior found that they shared a common goal of contributing helpful content and tools
to the online community.

Now graduating from a successful beta run, Vouchon has already attracted a new group
of people that enjoy vouching on advice and recommendations. These vouchers enjoy
voting on the best and contributing to a new and exciting community.

To celebrate its launch, Vouchon is offering a contest: Recommend the best tagline
for Vouchon.com. The winner will receive $100 in prize money.
