1.   Summary of significant accounting policies
     ------------------------------------------

     Management's representation

     The management of the BigHub.com, Inc. without audit has prepared the
     financial statements included herein. The unaudited condensed consolidated
     financial statements include the consolidated accounts of The BigHub.com,
     Inc. as of and for the three and nine months ended July 30, 2000 and those
     of Next Generation Media Corporation as of and for the two months ended
     June 30, 2000 (collectively, the "Company"). Certain information and note
     disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.
     In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments considered
     necessary for fair presentation of the financial statements have been
     included and were of a normal recurring nature, and the accompanying
     financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Company
     as of July 30, 2000, the results of operations for the fiscal quarters
     ended July 30, 2000 and 1999 and the results of operations and cash flows
     for the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000 and 1999.

     It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with
     the Company's audited financial statements and notes for the years ended
     October 31, 1999 and 1998 filed with the Company's annual report on Form
     10-KSB and the audited financial statements of Next Generation Media
     Corporation (acquired during the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000) filed
     with the Company's amended current report on Form 8-K/A on July 14, 2000.
     The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a
     full year.

     Change in Fiscal Year End

     Effective November 1, 1999, the Company changed its reporting period from a
     fiscal year ending on October 31 to a fiscal year ending on the last Sunday
     of October.

     Principles of Consolidation

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
     accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries as of and for the three and
     nine months ended July 30, 2000 except for Next Generation Media
     Corporation ("NexGen") where accounts are included as of June 30, 2000 and
     for the two months ended June 30, 2000. Intercompany transactions and
     balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (Unaudited)

     Minority Interest

     The Company consolidates NexGen's assets, liabilities, revenues and
     expenses, with reductions on the balance sheet and statement of income for
     the minority shareholders' 31% interest in NexGen's equity and earnings.
     Minority interest of $573,933 was recorded on the consolidated balance
     sheet at July 30, 2000.

     Comprehensive Income

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130
     ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS 130 establishes
     standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
     components in a full set of general purpose financial statements.  The
     effect of SFAS 130 is reflected in these financial statements.

     Inventories

     Inventories consist primarily of paper, envelopes and printing materials
     and are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on the
     first-in, first-out method.

     Earnings Per Share

     Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income
     available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Incremental common
     shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, are
     included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share to the
     extent such shares are dilutive.  As the Company has a loss for the periods
     presented, all options and warrants are antidilutive and are therefore not
     included in the per share computation.

     Segment Information

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
     which requires public companies to report selected segment information in
     their quarterly reports.  It also requires entity-wide disclosures about
     the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in
     which it holds assets and reports revenues and its major customers. During
     the quarter ended July 30,

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 July 30, 2000
                                  (Unaudited)

     2000, the Company operated in three reportable segments as disclosed in the
     accompanying statement of operations. See Note 9 "Segment Information."

     Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     The FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS
     133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."
     SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
     instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
     contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
     all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at
     their fair value. This statement, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for
     financial statements for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning
     after June 15, 2000. The Company does not expect the adoption of this
     standard to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial
     position or cash flows as it currently does not engage in any derivative or
     hedging activities.

     In March 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue
     No. 00-2, "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs" ("EITF 00-2") to be
     applicable to all web site development costs incurred for the quarter
     beginning after June 30, 2000. The consensus states that for specific web
     site development costs, the accounting for such costs should be accounted
     for under AICPA Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1), "Accounting for the
     Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." The
     Company has not yet addressed whether the adoption of EITF 00-2 will have a
     material effect on its financial statements.

     In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44"),
     "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an
     Interpretation of APB 25." FIN 44 clarifies the application of APB 25 for
     (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying APB 25, (b) the
     criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory
     plan, (c) the accounting consequence for various modifications to the terms
     of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an
     exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is
     effective July 1, 2000, but certain provisions cover specific events that
     occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. The adoption of
     certain other provisions of FIN 44 prior to July 30, 2000 did not have a
     material effect on the financial statements. The Company does not expect
     that the adoption of the remaining provisions will have a material effect
     on the financial statements.

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
     Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition," which outlines
     the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide
     guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue
     recognition policies in financial statements filed with the Securities and
     Exchange Commission. The effective date of this pronouncement is the fourth
     quarter of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company
     believes that adopting SAB 101 will not have a material impact on its
     financial position and results of operations.

     Reclassifications

     Certain reclassifications have been made to fiscal year to date results of
     operations to conform to the presentation of the three months ended July
     30, 2000.

2.   Going Concern
     -------------

     Because the Company had incurred cumulative losses over the last two fiscal
     years of $4,460,812 and a loss of $3,564,711 for the nine months ended July
     30, 2000, had a working capital deficit of approximately $1,723,100 as of
     July 30, 2000 and because of the lack of profitable operational history in
     Internet services, there is doubt as to the Company's ability to continue
     as a going concern which contemplates, among other things, the realization
     of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
     The ability of the Company to continue in existence is dependent primarily
     upon obtaining additional debt and equity financing as well as the
     generating of income from strategic alliances and the sale of products and
     services. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating
     to the reservability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the
     amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the
     Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3.   Acquisition of Next Generation Media Corporation
     ------------------------------------------------

     On May 1, 2000, the Company purchased approximately 69% of the issued and
     outstanding capital stock of (52% on a fully diluted basis), from Nexgen
     and an aggregate of 28 shareholders of NexGen.

     BigHub purchased the shares of NexGen common stock using shares of BigHub
     common stock as consideration. The securities purchased from NexGen
     consisted of a total of 3,175,100 shares of NexGen common stock, options to
     purchase 164,915 shares of NexGen common stock from NexGen, with an
     exercise price of $0.16 per share, and options to purchase 300,000 shares
     of NexGen common stock from certain stockholders, with an exercise price of
     $0.50.

     securities was 1,079,545. In addition, BigHub gave two of the NexGen
     shareholders, Joel Sens and Gerard R. Bernier, options to purchase an
     aggregate of 300,000 shares of BigHub's common stock at an exercise price
     of $1.25 per share and options to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares
     of BigHub's common stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share, as
     additional consideration in the transaction.

     The total consideration (including the value of the options) was
     $2,865,732, which was allocated as follows under the purchase method of
     accounting:

     Goodwill will be amortized on a straight line basis over an estimated
     useful life of 10 years.

     Prior to the transactions between BigHub and the selling shareholders
     described above, NexGen received a working capital loan in the amount of
     $500,000 from BigHub and as a result of the transaction agreed to include
     two appointees of BigHub on its five member Board of Directors.

     The following unaudited pro forma summary for the fiscal year ended October
     31, 1999 and the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000 gives effect to the
     acquisition of NexGen as if it had occurred on November 1, 1998 and 1999,
     respectively, and is based on historical results of operations of The
     BigHub.com for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1999 and the nine month
     period ended July 30, 2000 and of NexGen for the fiscal year ended December
     31, 1999 and the six month period ended June 30, 2000. This summary is not
     necessarily indicative of what actual results would have been had the
     transactions occurred on either November 1, 1998 or 1999 nor do they
     purport to indicate future results of the Company.

4.   Marketable Securities
     ---------------------

     In January 2000, a significant shareholder of the Company contributed
     250,000 shares of the common stock of Techlabs, Inc. ("Techlabs"), valued
     at $1,000,000 based on the trading price of the stock on that date. The

11.  Related Party Transactions
     --------------------------

     Disposition of Notes Receivable, Unearned Revenue and certain payables from
     Related Parties

     During the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000, notes receivable from
     related parties of $1,323,738 due from three affiliates was disposed of as
     follows. A note receivable from NexGen in the amount of $500,000 was
     eliminated in consolidation upon the acquisition of NexGen on May 1, 2000.
     Unearned revenue payable to an affiliate of $243,870 was applied in partial
     repayment of the note receivable from such affiliate. A payable to the
     affiliate in the amount of $252,721 was applied in partial repayment of the
     note receivable from such affiliate. At July 30, 2000, management assessed
     the likelihood of collecting the remaining balance of $327,147 of notes
     receivable and accrued interest and determined that the entire amount
     should be reserved against.

     Unearned Revenue

     Unearned revenue was comprised of prepaid monthly fees pursuant to an
     Affiliate Agreement (see below) that provided for $573,465 owed by the
     Company to the affiliate to be offset against the first year fees due to
     the Company by the affiliate for providing advertising and marketing for
     the affiliate. The amount of $573,465 represents the net present value of
     the $50,000 per month fee over twelve months at a discount rate of 10%. As
     of July 30, 2000, $243,870 of unearned revenue remained to be amortized.
     For the three and nine month periods ended July 30, 2000, the Company
     recorded related-party revenue of $150,000 and $350,000, respectively,
     under this arrangement, comprising 56% and 60%, respectively, of Internet
     revenues recognized. At July 30, 2000, pursuant to an agreement between the
     Company and the affiliate, the entire $243,870 balance of unearned revenue
     was applied in partial payment of a note receivable from the affiliate. See
     above.

     pursuant to a consulting agreement (see below).

     Notes Payable to Related Parties

     During the nine fiscal months ended July 30, 2000, the Company borrowed an
     aggregate of $1,090,000 for working capital purposes from two affiliates
     and a stockholder. The notes bear interest of 10% per annum and are due on
     the closing of the first tranche of the Company's future private placement.
     Interest expense related to all notes payable to related parties totaled
     $25,780 and $72,556 during the fiscal quarter and nine month period ended
     July 30, 2000, respectively.

     On January 31, 2000, the Company exchanged software with a net book value
     of $433,429 with a related party for a $519,604 reduction in notes payable
     to the related party. The difference of $86,175 has been recorded to
     additional paid-in capital in the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000.

     As of July 30, 2000, an aggregate of $440,000 in notes payable to related
     parties plus accrued interest thereon of $12,660 remained outstanding.
     These notes bear interest of 10% per annum and are due on the closing of
     the first tranche of the Company's future private placement.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating expenses paid or accrued to a related party for the nine months
     ended July 30, 2000 was approximately $534,000 most of which was offset
     against notes receivable on July 30, 2000. See above.

     Affiliate Agreement

     Prior to July 30,2000, the Company had a three-year Affiliate Agreement
     with an affiliate pursuant to which the Company provided strategic
     placement of advertising and marketing internet banners on the Company's
     web site in consideration for a monthly fee payable to the Company. The
     monthly fee was $50,000 in the first year, $100,000 in the second year, and
     $125,000 in the third year. For the nine month period ended July 30, 2000,
     the Company had recorded revenue of $350,000 related to this agreement (see
     above). On July 30, 2000, the Company and the affiliate agreed to the
     termination of the Affiliate Agreement.

     Consulting Agreement

     In April 1999, the Company entered into a three-year consulting agreement
     with a related party. Pursuant to the agreement, which was subsequently
     amended, the Company agreed to pay the related party $21,500 per month for
     consulting services and to provide the lead consultant with full health and
     life insurance benefits during the term of the agreement. As of January 1,
     2000, the agreement was terminated. As of July 30, 2000, the Company owed
     $60,000 under this agreement, which has been classified as related party
     payables (see above).

12.  Litigation

     On July 10, 2000, PriceNet USA, Inc. ("PriceNet") filed a Complaint with
the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Orange.  The
Company was named as a co-defendant along with Jerry Ballah, Bruce Ballah, The
BigStore.com, Inc., TheBigStore.com Marketing, Inc., The BigBiz.com, Inc.,
OhGolly.com, Inc., IpowerBiz.com, PriceNet Marketing, Inc., and MGI
Worldnet.com.  PriceNet seeks an undetermined amount of compensatory and
punitive damages in excess of $25,000,000.  PriceNet alleges that the Company
breached the Licensing Agreement dated [   ] by and between the Company and
PriceNet by telling PriceNet not to pay sums due to the Company under the
Licensing Agreement and then canceling the Licensing Agreement because of
alleged non-payment. PriceNet also alleges that the Company disclosed certain of
its confidential information to unauthorized third parties. The Company believes
that the claims of PriceNet are specious, defamatory and completely without
merit and will vigorously pursue any and all defenses and counterclaims
determined to be available to the Company.

     On July 11, 2000, Pacific Finance Search ("Pacific") filed a Complaint with
the Orange County Superior Court.  The Company was named as a co-defendant along
with The BigStore.com, Inc., Michael Skellern, Frank W. Denny, Robert McNulty,
and Chet Howard. Pacific seeks alleged contract damages in the amount of
$38,600, alleged general damages exceeding $233,500, plus interest, costs and
undetermined punitive and exemplary damages to be determined in connection with
the co-defendants' alleged breach of contract, common counts, intentional
misrepresentation and negligent misrepresentation. The Company has disputed and
intends to dispute in trial a portion of the amounts billed by Pacific.
Additionally, the Company believes that the claims of Pacific with respect to
alleged intentional misrepresentation and negligent misrepresentation are
without merit and will vigorously contest them.

     Management is not able to predict the outcome of these matters. As a
result, no amounts are recorded related to these matters on the accompanying
unaudited financial statements.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        -----------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations.
--------------

     The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe
harbor" for forward-looking statements. Certain information contained herein (as
well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made
or to be made by the Company contains statements that are forward-looking, such
as statements relating to anticipated future revenues and expenses of the
Company and the success of current and planned product offerings. Such forward-
looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could
significantly affect anticipated results in the future, and accordingly, such
results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements made by or on behalf of the Company. The potential risks and
uncertainties include, among others, limited operating history, competitive and
economic factors of the marketplace including acceptance of the Company's
proprietary search engine and licensed e-commerce technology and content
products, the continued growth and acceptance of the Internet, Year 2000 issues,
and the state of the economy.

Introduction

  The following discussion is based upon, and should be read in conjunction
with, the audited financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal
years ended October 31, 1999 and 1998, together with the notes thereto, and the
unaudited financial statements of the Company as of July 30, 2000 and for the
fiscal three and nine months ended July 30, 2000 and 1999.

  During 1999, the Company underwent a restructuring of its core business to
Internet e-commerce.  On May 1, 2000, the Company acquired a controlling
interest in Next Generation Media Corporation.  The results of operations for
Next Generation Media Corporation from the date of acquisition through June 30,
2000 are included in the Company's consolidated results of operations reported
herein. Accordingly, the Company believes that the following presentation of
comparative results of operations, while required, is not meaningful. In
addition, the Company believes that historical results are not indicative of
future results.

  This Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties.  Our actual results may differ significantly from the results
discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Quarter Ended July 30, 2000 Compared with the Fiscal Quarter Ended July
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30, 1999
--------

     Sales for the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000 increased $3,048,509 to
$3,053,654 over the $5,145 recorded during the comparative prior year quarter
and was comprised primarily of coupon sales and print advertising revenue in
contrast with the web site banner advertising revenue reported in fiscal 1999.
Included in sales for the July 30, 2000 fiscal quarter is $150,000 from a
related party.  Cost of sales in the third fiscal quarter of 2000 increased
$2,015,320 to $2,025,752 as compared with the $10,432 reported in the fiscal
quarter ended July 30, 1999.

     During the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000, general and administrative
expenses increased by $1,175,257 to $2,146,865 from the $971,608 reported in the
comparative prior year quarter.  This change resulted from the increase in the
overall business development activities of the Company including operating the
Direct Mail Marketing and Newspaper Publishing segments, upgrading its search
engine and web site and developing new sources of revenue, in contrast to the
prior year quarter's activities which were centered around the restructuring of
the Company's core business to Internet e-commerce.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $266,869 to $315,654 in
the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000 compared to $48,785 reported in the
comparative prior year quarter.  This increase resulted from the increase in
value of the Company's search engine and website as a result of improvements
capitalized in the second half of 1999 as well as additions to equipment and the
amortization of intangibles acquired in connection with the purchase of a
majority interest in NexGen.

     During the period, NexGen reported a gain on discontinued operation of
$722,996 in connection with the disposal of the Newspaper Publishing segment.

     As a result of the foregoing, for the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000,
the Company reported a net loss of ($714,114), or ($0.03) per share.  This
compares to a net loss of ($1,025,680), or ($0.12) per share for the comparative
prior year quarter.

Fiscal Nine Months Ended July 30, 2000 Compared with the Fiscal Nine Months
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ended July 30, 1999
-------------------

     Sales for the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000 increased $3,350,371
to $3,365,632 over the $15,261 recorded during the comparative prior year period
and was comprised primarily coupon sales and print advertising revenue in
contrast with the web site banner advertising revenue reported in fiscal 1999.
Included in sales for the July 30, 2000 fiscal nine months is $300,000 from a
related party.  Cost of sales in the first nine fiscal months of 2000 increased
$2,216,080 to $2,229,599 as compared with the $13,519 reported in the fiscal
nine months ended July 30, 1999.

     During the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000, general and
administrative expenses increased by $3,655,752 to $4,789,622 from the
$1,133,870 reported in the comparative prior year period.  This change resulted
from the increase in the overall business development activities of the Company
including operating the Direct Mail Marketing and Newspaper Publishing segments,
upgrading its search engine and web site and developing new sources of revenue,
in contrast to the prior year period's activities which were centered around the
restructuring of the Company's core business to Internet e-commerce.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $438,494 to $584,489 in
the fiscal nine months ended July 30, 2000 compared to $146,355 reported in the
comparative prior year period.  This increase resulted from the increase in
value of the Company's search engine and website as a result of improvements
capitalized in the second half of 1999 as well as additions to equipment and the
amortization of intangibles acquired in connection with the purchase of a
majority interest in NexGen.

     Interest expense decreased by $335,114 to $77,386 in the fiscal nine months
ended July 30, 2000 compared to $412,500 reported in the comparative prior year
period. One-time, non-cash interest expense in 1999 was incurred in connection
with certain equity transactions as set forth in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1999. In contrast, interest
expense in 2000 was incurred in connection with notes payable and notes payable
to related parties.

     During the period, NexGen reported a gain on discontinued operation of
$722,996 in connection with the disposal of the Newspaper Publishing segment.

     As a result of the foregoing, for the fiscal nine months ended July 30,
2000, the Company reported a net loss of ($3,564,711), or ($0.19) per share.
This compares to a net loss of ($1,623,983), or ($0.29) per share for the
comparative prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2000, the Company's net cash
position decreased by $104,389. For the nine months ended July 30, 2000, the
Company generated a net of $5,320,771 from financing activities, while operating
and investing activities used net cash of $5,438,928. These activities
contributed to a $1,723,100 deficit in working capital as of July 30, 2000.

     During fiscal 1999 and the first nine fiscal months of 2000, the Company
has relied heavily on funds borrowed from two affiliates and a stockholder who
supplied $1,090,000 for the nine fiscal months ended July 30, 2000.  As of July
30, 2000, all but $440,000 of such funds had been repaid.  The Company may be
required to borrow additional funds from these parties or other sources.  There
cannot be any assurances that funds will continue to be available from either of
these parties or any other source.

     During February and March 2000, the Company issued 3,000,000 shares of its
common stock in exchange for aggregate cash proceeds of $6,000,000.  The shares
were sold to several accredited investors in private, unsolicited transactions
pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, as promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.   The
placement agent received placement fees in the aggregate amount of $550,000 and
warrants to purchase 875,000 shares of the Company's common stock exercisable at
a price of $2.00 per share at any time through March 6, 2005.  In addition,
various consultants related to this financing received 1,500,000 shares of
common stock as compensation for their services, which are included
<PAGE>

as additional shares issued in connection with this transaction.

     On May 1, 2000, the Company purchased approximately 69% of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of Next Generation Media Corporation ("NexGen") (52%
on a fully diluted basis), from an NexGen and aggregate of 28 shareholders of
NexGen. The Company issued 1,079,545 shares of common stock in consideration for
the NexGen shares. In addition, the Company gave two of the NexGen shareholders,
Joel Sens and Gerard R. Bernier, options to purchase an aggregate of 300,000
shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share and
options to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Company's common stock at
an exercise price of $5.50 per share, as additional consideration in the
transaction. The total consideration (including the value of the options) was
$2,865,732.

     Because the Company had incurred cumulative losses over the last two fiscal
years of $4,460,812, had a working capital deficit of approximately $3,039,196
as of October 31, 1999 and because of the lack of profitable operational history
in Internet services, the Company's auditors, in their report on the financial
statements of the Company as of October 31, 1999, expressed doubt as to the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern which contemplates, among other
things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business.  In addition, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,564,711
for the nine fiscal months ended July 30, 2000.  Finally, the Company has
consented to the termination of all material revenue generating contracts held
by the Internet segment.  The Company intends to obtain additional debt and
equity financing for marketing, software development and the funding of
operations as well as the generating of income from strategic alliances and
sales of products and services.   Management believes these funding sources will
be sufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital requirements and
other cash requirements through at least December 31, 2000.

     As of the date of this report, we are attempting to raise additional funds
with a private placement to accredited investors. We seek to raise up to
approximately $3.0 million from such a placement, which we anticipate would be
adequate funding for the next four months and for preparation of an anticipated
secondary public offering. At present, we are managing the private placement.
There is no assurance we will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when
needed, or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms
satisfactory to us.

     Year 2000 Compliance.
     ---------------------

     To the fullest extent permitted by law, the following discussion is a "Year
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000 Readiness Disclosure" within the meaning of the Year 2000 Information and
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Readiness Disclosure Act 105 p.l. 271.  Compliance with the Year 2000
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Information and Readiness Disclosure Act does not preclude claims for violations
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of federal securities laws.
--------------------------

     The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs being written to
recognize two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. This causes
computer programs to interpret a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than
the year 2000, which could result in computer failures and miscalculations.  The
effects of this issue will vary from system to system and may adversely affect
an entity's operations and its ability to prepare financial statements.

     All systems and applications at the Company are Year 2000 compliant. This
includes both servers and desktop systems and applications. The overall
infrastructure of Company was built starting in May 1999. We undertook specific
steps to ensure that all systems and applications acquired are Year 2000
compliant.  The MetaSearch technology acquired from Isleuth was completely
reengineered and is also Year 2000 compliant.

     Neither the Company nor its customers or suppliers are known to have
experienced any Year 2000 problems as of the filing of this quarterly report on
Form 10-QSB. However, there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 problem will
not affect the Company in the future by causing disruptions in the business
operations of persons with whom the Company does business, such as customers or
suppliers. Future or undiscovered Year 2000 problems could have a material
adverse effect on the Company.

  If the necessary providers of power, communications and other such providers
of important services are not fully prepared for the Year 2000, the Year 2000
could have a material impact on the Company. We have no way of knowing how the
Year 2000 will affect future Internet functions.
