Item 5. Other Events.


  On December, 31 1998, the registrant initiated a private offering of
250,000 Units, each comprised of one share of common stock and one warrant to
purchase one share of common stock.  The Units were offered at $5.50 each which
was the average closing price of the registrant's common stock on the Nasdaq
Small Cap Market for the preceding 10 trading days.  The warrants are
exercisable at $7.00 and expire December 31, 2003.  The shares and the shares
underlying the warrants entitle the holder to piggyback registration rights from
June 30, 1999 through December 31, 2003.  The offering is structured on a
minimum/ maximum basis with the minimum comprised of 80,000 Units (gross
proceeds of $440,000) and a maximum of 250,000 Units (gross proceeds of
$1,375,000).  The registrant is relying on the Rule 506 exemption from
registration.


  At January 15, 1999, the registrant had received proceeds for Units exceeding
the minimum; signed subscription agreements and proceeds were received from 16
persons for 128,500 Units, equalling gross proceeds of $706,750.  Subscribers
were directors, officers and shareholders of the registrant.  The offering may
continue until the maximum is reached or the registrant terminates the offering.
Additional commitments totalling $118,250 for gross proceeds of $825,000 had
also been obtained which were expected to be collected by January 31, 1999.  The
offering has been extended by thirty days in order to close on the maximum.


  Proceeds will be used to support the registrant's rapid expansion of its
international markets, the implementation of agreements with Concert Global
Networks Limited, for building a worldwide audio teleconferencing network, and
with GTE Telephone Operating Companies for registrant's acquisition of a video
conferencing network.  Of immediate importance is the increase in the
registrant's tangible net assets.  Proceeds from the subscription agreements
received on January 15, 1999 have increased tangible net assets to $2,317,320 as
at January 15, 1999.

  The following estimated proforma results of operations to December 31, 1998
(which are subject to audit) and proforma consolidated balance sheet at January
15, 1999 (incorporating the effect of the private placement proceeds collected
to January 15, 1999) reflect the calculation of Registrant's tangible net asset
value (total assets minus total liabilities minus goodwill) at $2,317,320.
