Management Commentary

"In the fourth quarter we continued to refine and expand on our business model. Specifically, our refinement includes the ability to capture additional revenue opportunities in select industries such as the manufacturing housing industry, as opposed to being simply a finder site for many industries. As an example, our finder site www.ManufacturedHomes.com is designed to not only provide consumers with geo-targeted locations for factories and retail dealers, but it has a wealth of features including proprietary CRM software that is being very well received by our users. It was designed by manufactured home industry experts specifically for the manufactured home industry. Just as importantly, since the end of the year we've opened our first of what we anticipate to be many manufactured home retail centers."
