PublicRoutes.com Announces Strategic Partnership with NewYork.com

    Online directions resource working with successful travel website to
             provide a tool for traveling around New York City

    NEW YORK, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- PublicRoutes.com, the international
Web resource for public transportation and driving directions, today
announced that it is working with NewYork.com, the leading tourism and
entertainment Web site for New York City, by providing directions for
tourists and visitors to the city. PublicRoutes.com's proprietary
technology appears on the NewYork.com Web site and allows visitors to
quickly find their way around New York City using all modes of
transportation available. This announcement marks another milestone for
PublicRoutes.com, which has been established as a leading resource for
online directions and "green-friendly" transportation since launching in
2006.

    PublicRoutes.com has created a vast database of directions-based
services for over 30 cities across the country, including interactive maps,
local search capabilities, popular points of interest and more. The company
is providing NewYork.com with a 'Quick Link' on its homepage that allows
users to find directions to any point in the greater New York City area.

    "Our working relationship with NewYork.com validates the successful
platform we've built at PublicRoutes.com that allows businesses and
organizations to enhance customer service by helping people travel quickly
and efficiently to their desired location," said Marc Sellouk, CEO of
PublicRoutes.com. "Taking advantage of public transportation options,
especially in New York City, is vital with the tremendous amount of
resources available. PublicRoutes.com allows a native or visitor to the
city the ability to find all of their travel needs in one place."

    As Brett Pulley, the CEO of NewYork.com, pointed out: "Both visitors
and savvy New Yorkers are often times not sure about how to get from one
point to another in the city. They don't know if they should walk, take a
taxi, a subway, or combine all three. As a result of our partnership with
PublicRoutes.com, NewYork.com is now the best source for anyone trying to
navigate this vast city."

    By merging a city's resources into a free, easy-to-use website,
PublicRoutes.com also allows users to obtain information and door-to-door
directions to each city's top points of interest including restaurants,
sporting arenas and nightlife venues - something very important for
NewYork.com users.

    The company will soon expand to include more cities within the U.S. and
internationally. For more information and to access the new
