Fernanda Schonardie
West Palm Beach, FL - Quepasa Corporation, one of the world's fastest-growing Latino social networks, announced the winner of its 2009 Quepasa - Playboy Mexico Cyber Girl contest. As winner of the contest, Brazilian swimsuit model Fernanda Schonardie will appear on the cover of Playboy Mexico's 2010 Summer Edition.

The Playboy Mexico Cyber Girl contest is hosted on Quepasa's Playboy Mexico online community , which has grown to over 2 million monthly page views, 90,000 members and over 200 contestants since its launch in January 2009.

"Quepasa's 10MM member user base combined with the Playboy Mexico Cyber Girl concept is providing a unique opportunity through which aspiring Latina models can gain vast international recognition," said John Abbott, Quepasa's CEO. "As we enter into the second year of our Playboy Mexico partnership, we're in the process of launching a series of new interactive features that will both enhance the user experience and allow for the monetization of this community."

"Much of Playboy's success over the decades has come from giving the 'girl next door' the opportunity to achieve her dreams. The Quepasa partnership is allowing us to identify that 'girl next door' by offering an interactive platform to millions of aspiring women throughout the US and Latin America," says Gabriel Bauducco, Playboy Mexico's Editorial Director. "In addition, Quepasa's social features - such as voting, commenting, and sharing across other social networks - provide real-time feedback with regards to the popularity of each contestant."
