Press Release Body: December 20, 2007 -- VegBang.com, the first vegetarian and vegan
news sharing network, was launched today. VegBang is a veggie oriented clone of
Digg, and was born as a response to the systematic link rejection suffered by
vegetarians in that popular site.

VegBang started as a way to fight back the Internet gang called the Digg mafia (also
known as the bury brigade), who blatantly bans every pro-vegetarianism submission to
Digg. Being vegetarianism one of Digg\'s taboo topics, a couple of vegans joined
together and decided to develop a whole new site to spread the news and links that
were not allowed to share over the Digg network. That was VegBang\'s kick start. And
after one month of succesful Alpha testing, VegBang now reached its Beta status.

Today, with hundreds of registered users and daily links submissions within
categories such as Animal Rights, Environment, Events, Health, News and Recipes,
VegBang is reaching its main goal: to provide the vegetarian and vegan community
with the ultimate social framework for fresh news and substantial links sharing.
Vegetarianism is exploding everywhere over the Internet (big media, weblogs,
newsletters, forums) and the VegBang team hopes to ignite that vegetarian explosion.



About VegBang:

VegBang is the first social network for people to share the best vegetarian related
Internet content. From news to recipes and from health documents to weblog posts,
VegBang\'s users love to crawl the web and share their latest finds. This value
content is auto-regulated by members themselves: anyone who joins the community
becomes an editor. VegBang\'s social network technology allows all its users to
submit an article that will be reviewed by all and will be promoted, based on
popularity, to the main page.
