eReleases Twitter Contest Reaches Day 45; Five Netbooks and 32 Press Release
Distributions Remain in 77-Day Anniversary Giveaway


BALTIMORE, Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- This October, press release distribution
service eReleases(R) (http://www.ereleases.com) turns 11 years old, but the
celebration is already underway. For a full 11 weeks, eReleases is giving away
one Netbook PC each week and a press release distribution every day
(http://www.ereleases.com/prfuel/free-asus-eee-pc-1005ha-77-free-press-releases/).

The prizes -- in total, 11 Netbooks and 77 press release distributions -- are
valued at a whopping $34,000, and any business with a Twitter or Delicious
account, blog or Web site can enter the giveaway multiple times.

Thus far, eReleases has awarded six Netbooks and 45 press release
distributions to contest participants. The winners of the past week's press
release distributions were Dolf Kamper, Meg Keller, Sarah Shearer, Robert
Andrescik, Hank Richards, Alex Averin and Terry Van Horne.

Each press release distribution eReleases gives away provides the same
industry-leading service offered at eReleases' standard rates. Winners' press
releases are issued over a Tier-1 newswire, targeted to subscribing trade
journalists and optimized for online visibility -- a far cry from online press
release services that blast out releases to free websites with no media
contacts or industry credentials.

"We are seeing an energetic response to our social media-based giveaway,"
stated eReleases founder and CEO Mickie Kennedy. "I can't help but think that
part of the enthusiasm is based on businesses' understanding that press
releases are an integral part of any leading-edge public relations and
marketing strategy."
