SUBJECT: Qwest Dex Relationship; Press Release

Welcome to The Internet 800 Directory Newsletter. This week, we released an announcement publicizing our relationship with Qwest Dex. As most of you probably already know, the Qwest Dex web site has been using our information for some time now. Because of the recent merger between US West and Quest this release was kept on hold. This week, because of the announcement, we have had several inquires from other Yellow Page sites about including our toll free information. As always we will continue to work on gaining the best possible exposure for our listings.
