Editors Note: A photo is included with this press release.

    Verb Exchange Inc. (TSX VENTURE: VEI) a leader in digital media, today
announced the official launch of the Tabrio Facebook 'fan page'. As part
of an ongoing effort to integrate social media into the product marketing
plan, Tabrio 'Fans' will get an up-close look at Tabrio while also being
able to interact directly with the development and marketing teams to
improve and understand the product. Verb Exchange also launched their
twitter.com news feed for fans and users of Tabrio. Now you can 'follow'
Tabrio as they tweet their latest updates. Leveraging the quick message
impact of micro-blogging, Tabrio 'tweets' will update users and investors
alike with up-to-the-minute insights into the day-to-day news and
information coming from the company's head office in Vancouver, BC. 

    Tabrio's social media links:

    Tabrio Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tabrio/13483136331

    Tabrio Twitter.com Feed: http://twitter.com/tabrio

    The Tabrio Facebook page allows Tabrio to communicate with their users
and 'fans' on Facebook, and to engage a conversation about the product
itself. Facebook is the perfect forum to talk about digital media and get
valuable feedback from Tabrio users. Through the Facebook page, users can
show their support by 'becoming a fan' (which fuels viral growth),
writing on the 'Wall', and other interactions that automatically generate
News Feed stories that promote the product to a mass web audience.

    Tabrio runs on all major equipment brands and does not require any
special headsets for use. Every user receives a $5 USD credit, the
equivalent of approximately 100 international minutes or 100 global text
messages.

    "Our Facebook page is the first phase in an ongoing strategy to harness
the viral potential of social media. The potential to promote the product
and interact with our users on a more credible level are among our core
objectives," said Christopher Bennett, Public Relations for Verb Exchange
Inc.

    "Beyond just Facebook pages solutions, I'm anxious to incorporate
Facebook Beacon with Facebook Social Ads and Insights into our strategy.
Our users and future users are spread across many different demographic
areas. Facebook provides the ideal platform for us to communicate with
them," said Tabrio Communications Inc. Director, Operations, Christine
Kovacs.
