                Notes to Condensed Unaudited Financial Statements


Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  financial information of the Company is prepared in accordance
with the rules prescribed for filing condensed interim financial statements and,
accordingly, does not include all disclosures that may be necessary for complete
financial  statements  prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.  The disclosures presented are sufficient,  in management's opinion,
to make the interim  information  presented  not  misleading.  All  adjustments,
consisting of normal  recurring  adjustments,  which are necessary so as to make
the interim  information not misleading,  have been made.  Results of operations
for the three  months  ended March 31, 1998 are not  necessarily  indicative  of
results of  operations  that may be expected  for the year ending  December  31,
1998.  It is  recommended  that  this  financial  information  be read  with the
complete  financial  statements  included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 previously filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.


Per Share Information

As of December 31, 1997, the Company adopted  Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards  (SFAS) No. 128,  "Earnings Per Share",  which specifies the method of
computation,  presentation  and disclosure for earnings per share.  SFAS No. 128
requires the presentation of two earnings per share amounts, basic and diluted.

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the average number of common shares
outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the average
number of common  shares  outstanding  plus the dilutive  effect of  outstanding
stock options using the "treasury stock" method.

The basic and  diluted  earnings  per share are the same since the Company had a
net  loss  for 1998 and 1997  and the  inclusion  of  stock  options  and  other
incremental  shares  would be  antidilutive.  Options  and  warrants to purchase
231,334  and  384,001  shares  of  common  stock  at  March  31,  1998  and 1997
respectively  were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
because the Company had a net loss and their effect would be antidilutive.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
 Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

     Net Revenues. For three months ended March 31, 1998 net sales were $210,143
versus  $188,531 in the same  period of the prior year.  The rise in revenues is
primarily  attributed to increased  marketing efforts resulting in the growth of
Internet  subscribers and web development  projects.  The Company  believes that
revenues will continue to increase as additional marketing plans are implemented
that focus on  increasing  name brand  recognition  and as the number of network
points of presence (POPs) increase.

     Operating Expenses.  For three months ended March 31, 1998, total operating
expenses  were  $380,029  versus  $385,976 in the same period of the prior year.
This decrease of $5,947 is primarily attributed to the implementation of several
cost reduction or cost containment  steps. The company  successfully  terminated
its  Visalia,  California  office  rental  lease  resulting  in lower  operating
expenses.   The  Company  will  also  seek  to  reduce  operating   expenses  by
renegotiating  or canceling  its Shaw Ave Capital  Lease.  However,  the Company
believes that operating expenses will increase as revenues increase.

     Operating  Loss.  The Company's  operating loss for the period ending March
31, 1998 totaled  $169,886 versus  $197,445 in 1997,  representing a decrease of
$27,559 or 13.9%.  This  decrease  is due to a rise in revenues  coupled  with a
decrease in total operating expenses. Management believes that operating results
will continue to improve as revenues increase.

     Interest income  (expense).  Net interest  expense totaled $258,501 for the
period ending March 31, 1998 versus net interest  income of $1,736 in 1997.  The
increase in net interest  expense of $260,237 is primarily  attributable  to the
amortization of debt issuance costs (issuance of 150,000 shares of Common Stock,
commissions  and loan interest  expense) in connection with the 1997 Bridge Loan
financing.

     Other  income.  Net other income  decreased to $45,740 from $99,870 for the
three  months  ended  March  31,  1998 and March 31,  1997,  respectively.  This
decrease  in 1998 is due to lower  rental  income  generated  by the Shaw Avenue
building and the absence of miscellaneous sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31,1998,  the Company used $113,689 of cash for
operating  activities  primarily as a result of the net loss for the period. The
Company has a working  capital  deficiency  of $909,725 at March 31,  1998.  The
Company intends to reduce the working capital deficiency by increasing sales and
attempting to obtain long term financing through the sale of its securities in a
public  offering.  The Company is offering  1,050,000 units (one share of common
stock  and  one  warrant)  at  $5.75  through  an  Underwriter.   The  Company's
registration  statement was declared effective on May 13, 1998 and closing is to
occur on May 19, 1998.

Capital  expenditures  relating primarily to the purchase of computer equipment,
furniture  and fixtures,  and software  amounted to $32,006 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The capital  investment is mainly in computer equipment to
sustain future growth of the Company.
