Press Release Summary: "The store is a reaction to the dismissal of brick and mortar
retail by the dot-coms," says founding owner Jonathan Jaffe. "


Press Release Body: New York, NY,May 20, 2008 -- Branding itself an Internet
Supermarket and the Internet Retail Superstore, www.its-your-internet.com, recently
opened a physical location in Forest Hills, Queens.

"The store is a reaction to the dismissal of brick and mortar retail by the
dot-coms," says founding owner Jonathan Jaffe. "In the brick and mortar retail
environment today, there are really no stores where consumers can walk in and buy a
web site, start a blog, join a social network, get traffic for their business web
site, or post and blast out their resume."

The emergence of hybrid brick and mortar and dot com stores, "dot-bricks," has
already grabbed the popular imagination, most recently in the movie The 40 Year Old
Virgin in which a main character had a physical eBay store. The first Internet
dedicated store, an Internet Café in London, opened in 1994; however, apart from
Internet Cafés and a handful of eBay stores, the "dot-bricks" have been slow to
transform physical spaces into virtual links to the Internet.

Similar in layout to an Internet Café, the store has multiple stations dedicated to
the store's virtual catalog. The store allows customers to check their email and
browse the Internet for free as they shop.

The store creates a marketplace for Internet services and products at fixed prices,
providing the support and hand-holding of a store with the imagination and
efficiency of the Internet. The owners also provide free consultation and
professional consulting services.

Open just shy of a month, the store has started laying firm roots in the community,
hosting the first of a free monthly professional networking event, taking a booth at
the job fair of the local college, Bramsonort, becoming a proud member of the Forest
Hills Chamber of Commerce, and preparing to exhibit on June 8th at the Forest Hills
Arts Festival.
