I was wondering if anyone knows of any guides/resources for writing press releases.

Obviously this begs the next question: what do you do with the press release(s) when you finish? How do you know where or to whom they should be submitted?

Post them on your site.

I also saw a site somewhere where they will submit your press release to thousands of media sources for $$$...

Well, I was sort of thinking of the kind that announce the existence of the site to the world, so posting them right there would be kind of silly.

Sure, press releases do that, but also much more. Companies use press releases to inform people of company changes (IE: new CEO, etc...), site changes, and service changes. Writing a press release just about the launch of the site is a tiny peice in the pie.

Check out these sites. They offer Press Release writing tips as well as paid services to write and distribute them.

I am sure there are more out there. These are just two that I have looked into. I haven't used any yet, but may use eReleases next week because their targeted distribution list looks pretty good.

Hope this helps!
