Press Release Summary: Free WiFi Service in Doctors' Offices to Feature Enhanced
Internet Searching


Press Release Body: Apex, NC, March 26, 2008--WiSpots (www.wispots.com) has selected
tyBitŪ Unified Search (www.tyBit.com/?pdkw=pr-wispots-prp-03-25-2008), as the
exclusive search engine for its WiPad devices that allow patients in medical office
waiting rooms to connect to the Internet for free, even if they don't have their own
wireless device. Several physician practices already offer WiPads, and WiSpots will
be rolling out this new interactive media/Internet access solution that uses the
tyBit search engine throughout North Carolina and the United States over the next 18
months.

Revolutionizing Waiting Rooms

Most people spend a minimum of 30 minutes in a doctor's waiting room before
receiving medical services. With the WiSpots WiPad, they can connect to the Internet
to read informative content regarding their visit to the doctor or check e-mail
while away from their office.

"There were over 68,000 hotspots worldwide as of mid-2005," stated WiSpots CEO Kevin
Flannery. "At this time only a small percentage of the general public is able to
utilize these hotspot locations because patrons must provide their own laptop
computers or PDAs. That's not an issue at our client locations since we provide the
WiPads for their patients to use on site."

The partnership between WiSpots and tyBitŪ allows patients to search the Internet
with tyBitŪ Unified Search for online magazines, news and social networks such as
tyVille. Patients can also use WiPads to join existing social network groups, such
as cancer support groups, on tyVille, and communicate with other people throughout
the United States who share the same medical concerns.

Patients concerned about germs and the cleanliness of hard-copy magazines in waiting
rooms will appreciate the WiPad, which uses technology that provides a virtual "page
turning" experience for many publications. Magazines are read on the WiPad screen,
and pages are turned with the touch of a button. Additionally, WiSpots has enabled
each of their WiPads to be disinfected with antibacterial supplies provided on each
WiSpots interaction center, ensuring a healthy environment for any doctor's office.

Free WiFi Supported by Ads

WiFi access is provided for free to patients since the service is primarily
supported by advertising. WiSpots provides value to doctor's offices by boosting
patient satisfaction and turning any waiting room into a potential source of
revenue. As part of WiSpots' revenue-sharing program, the practice can receive a
percentage of the ad revenue under certain conditions.

For advertisers, WiSpots provide access to the most captive environment of consumers
worldwide. Unobtrusive advertising space is available in three different formats.
Companies searching to get their message out to the community can leverage WiSpots
and tyBitŪ to get "face time" with millions of consumers and an opportunity converse
with them, not just at them.

Advertising opportunities are available with tyBitŪ and WiSpots. Please contact the
