TORONTO, Mar 22, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Tucows Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: TCOW), today announced the launch of a new library of Online Services on www.tucows.com.

Businesses, governments, not-for-profit organizations and individuals have built a wide range of utilities made possible by the internet. Travel sites, resume services, photo hosting sites, ticket vendors, e-cards, shopping coupons and mortgage lenders are just a few of the numerous new online services available today.

Finding the right tool becomes a challenge for users when faced with so much choice. Tucows' Online Services Library provides one of the most comprehensive listing of internet productivity tools, reference sites, retailers and leisure services. In keeping with the popular 5-Cow rating system, the hallmark of Tucows' 40,000-title try-before-you-buy software library, each online service is rated and reviewed by Tucows. The reviewer evaluates each service relative to its class, using several criteria to ensure that consumers know what to expect from each provider. The rating process weighs ease of use, value, functionality and customer support to derive an overall score from which a 5-Cow rating is assigned.

As well, consumers have the opportunity to rate an online service and report their experiences to potential future users. Armed with both Tucows rating and the experiences of other end-users, visitors to the Online Services Library can make an informed decision regarding which tool to use and avoid wasting time searching the internet.

"More and more applications are being offered online rather than being downloaded to the desktop. We can now offer our customers a reliable source of information about these new online tools," said Elliot Noss, President and CEO. "It is especially fitting that the launch of this new library on tucows.com occurs ten years after the start of the original software download service."
