"Winning Workplaces and FORTUNE Small Business select Rick Faulk as one of 2004's ""Best Bosses"""

Woburn, MA (October 11, 2004) - Intranets.com (http://www.intranets.com), Intranets.com, the world's leading provider of on-demand collaboration services, today announced that Rick Faulk, president and CEO, has been named a 2004 "Best Boss" By FORTUNE Small Business Magazine (FSB) and Winning Workplaces, a nonprofit organization that helps small and midsize businesses adopt successful workplace practices. Chosen from hundreds of nominees nationwide, Rick Faulk was named a "Best Boss" for demonstrating innovative workplace practices that add to the bottom line and inspire greater employee loyalty and productivity.

"It is an honor to be recognized as one of this year's best bosses," said Faulk. "All of our employees deserve this award for the hard work they put in every day to make intranets.com a success. Because of their dedication, we are a growing and profitable company with a bright future."

Winning Workplaces and FSB partnered to identify the "Best Boss" nominees and evaluated them on criteria such as employee tenure, benefits, training, management challenges, and metrics for measuring success. Over a six-month period, FSB interviewed employees, advisors, accountants and attorneys who were familiar with the finalists. A panel of judges then named 15 Best Bosses who are featured in the October 2004 issue of FORTUNE Small Business. The stories are also available on www.fsb.com and www.winningworkplaces.org. Beyond being named a "Best Boss," Faulk is also listed as a "Boss to Watch" in 2004.

Of this year's outstanding leaders, "several have been tested by crises - from the sudden loss of a major revenue stream to increasing competition from powerful rivals," said Ellyn Spragins, FSB editor-at-large. "Success - and in some cases survival - depended upon making calculated bets that leveraged the loyalty of both employees and clients." Other bosses "used creative methods to coax extraordinary performances out of their employees in daunting circumstances."
