NOTE 1:          BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principals for interim
     financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
     of Regulations S-X. They do not include all information and notes required
     by generally accepted accounting principals for complete financial
     statements. However, except as disclosed, there has been no material change
     in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included
     in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of KnowledgeBroker, Inc. for the year

     (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
     presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period
     ended June 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
     be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

General

The Company's results of operations are strongly affected by the size and timing
of contracts for support desk services and software sales. Contracts for the
Company's Support desk services are often tied to the introduction of a new
computer product for which support will be required as the new product is
introduced and for a period of time thereafter. In other instances the Company
will have agreements for Support desk services that are not so much based on a
particular product but require more general support for personal computers and
that rely upon the Company's data base. Revenues for Support desk services,
accordingly, often fluctuate significantly. The direct personnel costs for
Support desk services also have to be managed carefully and fluctuate
significantly, depending upon the volume of calls generated by the Support desk
services.

Software sales, which include sales and licensing of the Company's AskMe Pro and
KnowledgeBases, also fluctuate significantly. However, the gross margins for
software sales and licensing are significantly larger than for Support desk
services.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1997, Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1996

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997, increased approximately
$500,000, to $1,323,967 from $824,549 for the 1996 six month period. The
increase in overall revenues reflects the addition of two large clients for
Support desk services in the first quarter of 1997 but masked the significant
drop in sales and licensing of the Company's software.

Because of the increased Support desk revenues the Company's gross profit
increased for the six month period to $780,000 from $496,000. This increase in
operating profit resulted in a net profit of $77,000 for the 1997 period
compared to the 1996 six month's period's loss of $123,000, the later period
covering the Selling, general and administrative costs that were essentially
unchanged between the periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's operating capital has been provided by operations, the issuance of
stock and bank lines of credit. The Company's long-term continuation depends
upon its ability to generate profits. Because the Company's losses have largely
been funded with debt, its ongoing ability to survive will depend upon its
ability to increase revenues.
