DataDetroit.com (CAR-eers.com) Looking for Buyer

    DETROIT, Oct. 31 Thomas Feeney, President of
DataDetroit.com, today announced that the automotive specific Internet job
board marketed under the names DataDetroit.com and CAR-eers.com was looking
for a buyer to purchase the two year old company.  Mr. Feeney cited a list of
reasons ranging from local Venture Capital Funds unwilling to invest in
national funds not realizing the size of the global automotive employment
market.
    "We get asked a lot how we can compete against Monster.com," said Feeney.
"Monster.com is to DataDetroit what Microsoft is to a small software company
writing individual solution based programs.  We saw the shift in how people
use Internet job boards that was described in the article 'A Better Way to
Float Your Resume' in the October 9, 2000 issue of Business Week magazine."
    The article identified how people were having more success using targeted
niche job boards as opposed to the all-things-to-all-people boards.  Alex
Salkever, who authored the Business Week article, said this was true for both
employers and job seekers.  Salkever also identified that some of the niche
job boards are tied to industry specific publications.
    "We totally believe in this business model and we know we've developed a
good product," says Feeney.  "Somebody is going to do this segment really
well, real soon.  We'd like to see somebody do it with CAR-eers.com.
    "We offer to a potential buyer an up and running operation at a fraction
of the cost it would take to create it, two years of brand marketing, and a
proven Internet business model."  Interested parties can send inquiries via
