PLANO, TX--(Marketwire - November 20, 2009) - NeXplore Corporation (PINKSHEETS: [ NXPC ]) today announced that the company's flagship product NeXplore Search ([ www.NeXplore.com ]) has emerged from beta and is now branded NeXplore Search 2.

NeXplore Search 2 is an interactive and visually engaging Web 2.0 search engine optimized for a superior end-user experience, multi-media display and social sharing integration. First introduced in public beta in January 2008, NeXplore Search 2 currently averages more than 5 million unique monthly visitors according to Web-analytics company Compete.com.

"We have removed the beta label because we have achieved our goals for stability, scalability and performance. However, we remain committed to our longstanding practice of introducing user-driven innovations," said Edward Mandel, CEO of NeXplore Corporation. "We are working to enhance several of NeXplore Search 2's popular personalization and socialization features, and we plan to integrate a Web-based operating system and application suite for managing and consolidating email accounts, contacts, calendars, music, projects, and more."

Mandel added, "The past two years have been great in terms of product development, feature refinements and user adoption. We anticipate the next two years being equally productive and exciting as we ramp up sales and strategic business development initiatives."

Commenting on NeXplore Search 2's new branding, Scott Grizzle, chief marketing officer for NeXplore Corporation, said, "Branding NeXplore as 'search squared' speaks directly to the dramatically different NeXplore Search 2 user experience as compared to the user experience of the incumbent search engines. The NeXplore difference is immediate, refreshing, and we believe, markedly better, particularly when it comes to NeXplore Search 2's options for displaying search results and our creative use of rich media."

Grizzle continued, "Despite all of the rhetoric coming from traditional search engines about differentiation and change, what we're seeing across the board is the 'same old, same old,' virtually indistinguishable user experience. According to a survey recently reported in the Wall Street Journal, nearly 40 percent of consumers use a single search engine for no better reason than force of habit. While there may be some truth to the expression 'old habits die hard,' we're confident that as more and more consumers experience the NeXplore difference, kicking the 'same old, same old' search engine habit will come naturally and the choice to use NeXplore will catch on like wildfire."
