    NEW YORK, Oct. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Palladium Equity Partners, LLC, a New
 York-based private equity firm, announced today that it has made an
 investment in DailyMe, Inc., a media company that provides personalized
 news and information on-demand, delivered across multiple media platforms.
     Gary D. Nusbaum, Managing Director of Palladium, said, "DailyMe is a
 leading media company that is bringing an innovative, quality service to
 the market combining the best of online and print media. Eduardo Hauser,
 Founder and President of the Company, is an energetic and visionary
 entrepreneur with extensive media and technology experience. Eduardo has
 assembled an impressive team which is combining cutting edge technology
 with a relevant, consumer- oriented product. They have a unique and
 compelling business strategy that Palladium is delighted to support."
     DailyMe Founder and CEO, Eduardo A. Hauser said, "This investment by
 Palladium is an important next step in the development of DailyMe,
 providing sufficient resources to continue developing DailyMe's
 personalized news and community features through our Beta period and
 beyond. It also acknowledges the importance of personalized, online news
 delivery as a space to watch as the transformation of the traditional media
 continues. We are pleased to be partnering with Palladium and look forward
 to the insight and support Gary and the Palladium team will provide."
     On October 9, DailyMe made the service available to the general public.
 Different than other online news sources, DailyMe builds a personalized
 news digest for each reader based on his or her own personal preferences,
 using choices of news categories, keywords, individual news sources, and
 pre- configured profiles developed by both the editorial team and DailyMe
 users. Each user's edition of DailyMe is drawn from a combination of
 thousands of licensed, professional news sources as well as user-generated
 content. Further, each user can choose to have DailyMe delivered via the
 web, sent via email or automatically printed from their personal computer
 printer at a specified time of day.
     Palladium was joined in the investment by prior DailyMe investors Miles
 Gilburne, a leader in digital media, and Jose Luis Suarez, an international
 investor.
