A newly launched addition to web publications headquartered in SF

offers everything a man needs and wants -sex, food, drink, sports,
travel, music, film, nightlife, drugs, games, gadgets, money, style,
and beautiful women. Featuring irreverent lifestyle content,
interviews with celebrities and sports stars, sexy pictures and
interactive games, as well as practical resources and convenient
shopping, Rouze.com appeals to the cravings, interests and desires of
all men.
Rouze.com features five primary content areas, which are updated
daily-Buzz, Rage, E, Sex and Perform-as well as weekly pictorials. In
the near future, the site will add comprehensive sports coverage,
financial news, stock quotes, travel and career services, personal
e-mail and the Rouze Emporium online store.
Lauren Blankenship, Rouze President and Director, brings over 10 years
of experience in business development, strategic relations, marketing

online. |
