BIGSTRING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012 AND 2011

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the periods presented herein have been prepared by BigString and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders' deficiency and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The information for the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 was derived from audited financial statements. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.

These Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

ORGANIZATION

BigString was incorporated in the state of Delaware on October 8, 2003 under the name “Recall Mail Corporation.” The Company’s name was formally changed to “BigString Corporation” in July 2005. BigString was formed to develop technology that would allow the user of email services to have comprehensive control, security and privacy relating to the email generated by the user. In March 2004, the BigString email service was introduced to the market.

BigString Interactive, Inc. (“BigString Interactive”), incorporated in the state of New Jersey, was formed by BigString in early 2006 to develop technology relating to interactive web portals.

PeopleString Corporation (“PeopleString”), incorporated in the state of Delaware, was formed by BigString in early 2009 to develop technology relating to social networks. BigString currently owns approximately 14% of PeopleString’s outstanding common stock.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BigString and its subsidiary, BigString Interactive, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances in order to conform to the current period’s presentation.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company’s significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, BigString’s consolidated financial statements reflect a loss from operations of $267,307, net cash used in operations of $132,019, a working capital deficiency of $566,630, a stockholders’ deficit of $15,327,131 and a cumulative net loss of $14,847,131. These matters raise substantial doubt about the ability of BigString to continue as a going concern. BigString’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the inability to continue as a going concern.

The time required for BigString to become profitable is highly uncertain, and BigString can give no assurances that it will achieve or sustain profitability or generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet planned capital expenditures, planned marketing expenditures and working capital requirements. If required, the ability to obtain additional financing from other sources also depends on many factors beyond BigString’s control, including the state of the capital markets and the prospects for BigString’s business. The necessary additional financing may not be available to BigString or may be available only on terms that would result in further dilution to the current stockholders of BigString.

Index

BIGSTRING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In March 2011, BigString sold 1,850,000 shares of PeopleString common stock through private transactions to accredited investors. The common stock was sold at $0.40 per share and BigString received aggregate gross proceeds of $740,000.

In April 2011, BigString sold 650,000 shares of PeopleString common stock through private transactions to accredited investors. The common stock was sold at $0.40 per share and BigString received aggregate gross proceeds of $260,000.

As a result of these sales of PeopleString common stock, BigString owned approximately 14% of PeopleString’s common stock as of March 31, 2012. BigString believes that it does not have sufficient capital to fund operations for at least the next twelve months.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the specified period and after preferred stock dividend requirements. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the specified period and after preferred stock dividend requirements. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, all potentially dilutive securities, which include convertible notes, outstanding preferred stock, warrants and options, have been excluded from the computation, as their effect is antidilutive.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting period. The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as follows:

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company held certain financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consisted of cash and cash equivalents and investments. The fair value of the cash and cash equivalents is determined based on quoted market prices in public markets and is categorized as Level 1. The fair value of BigString’s investment in PeopleString at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was determined based on quoted market prices in public markets and is categorized as Level 1. The fair value of BigString’s investment in FindItAll, Inc. was determined based on cost and was categorized as Level 3. There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during three months ended March 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011.

The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial assets accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

			Assets at Fair Value at Period End, Using:
			Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		Significant Other Observable Inputs		Significant Unobservable Inputs
Assets:	Total		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
March 31, 2012
Cash and cash equivalents	$	137,198	$	137,198	$	-	$	-
Investments		386,292		383,292		-		3,000
	$	523,490	$	520,490	$	-	$	3,000

Cash and cash equivalents	$	269,217	$	269,217	$	-	$	-
Investments		276,780		273,780		-		3,000
	$	545,997	$	542,997	$	-	$	3,000

Index

There were no financial assets accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The Company has other financial instruments, such as receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities which have been excluded from the table above. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, the carrying value of receivables, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their fair values. The Company did not have any other financial instruments within the scope of the fair value disclosure requirements as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

NOTE 5. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consist of the following:

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Computer equipment and internal software	$	159,313	$	159,313

NOTE 7. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Other income (expense) consists of interest income, interest expense, and other, net. The components of other, net consist of gain on investments, amortization of expenses related to the Company’s convertible debenture, preferred stock, warrant and common stock financings, and other income (loss), and are as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 31,
	2012			2011
Gain on sale of investments	$	-		$	2,058,827
Amortization of debt issue costs		-			(6,080	)
Amortization of promissory note discount		-			(5,415	)
Amortization of beneficial conversion feature		-			(17,551	)
Amortization of deferred financing		(123,800	)		(28,200	)
Other income (loss)		-			(739,103	)
	$	(123,800	)	$	1,262,478

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, gain on sale of investment included $18,827 from the sale of PeopleString common shares in January 2011, $740,000 from the sale of PeopleString common shares in March 2011, and $1,300,000 from the issuance of PeopleString common shares in January 2011 as part of several Agreement and Releases as discussed in Note 9.

Deferred financing costs were $65,000, $250,000 and $22,500 for the June 2009, February 2008 and May 2007 financings, respectively, and are being amortized over the incremental term of each note issued in those financings, as such terms may have been extended pursuant to the Agreement and Releases.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

BigString applies the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes” (ASC 740). A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Valuation allowances as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 have been applied to offset the deferred tax assets in recognition of the uncertainty that such tax benefits will be realized as BigString may continue to incur losses.

Components of deferred income tax assets are as follows:

	March 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
	Tax Effect			Tax Effect
Deferred tax assets - current
Benefit due to loss carryforward	$	5,196,496		$	5,102,938
Valuation allowance		(5,196,496	)		(5,102,938	)
	$	-		$	-

The Company files income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which it has reason to believe it is subject to tax. The Company is subject to examination by various taxing jurisdictions. To date, there have been no governmental examinations or audits. Nonetheless, any tax jurisdiction may contend that a filing position claimed by the Company regarding one or more of its transactions is contrary to that jurisdiction’s laws or regulations. Significant judgment is required in determining the worldwide provisions for income taxes. In the ordinary course of business of a global business, the ultimate tax outcome is uncertain for many transactions. It is the Company’s policy to establish provisions for taxes that may become payable in future years as a result of an examination by tax authorities. The Company establishes the provisions based upon management’s assessment of exposure associated with permanent tax differences and tax credits applied to temporary difference adjustments. The tax provisions are analyzed periodically (at least quarterly) and adjustments are made as events occur that warrant adjustments to those provisions.

NOTE 9. DEBT

On June 23, 2009, BigString entered into a Subscription Agreement with Whalehaven Capital Fund Limited, Alpha Capital Anstalt and Excalibur Special Opportunities LP (collectively, the “2009 Subscribers”), pursuant to which the 2009 Subscribers purchased convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $180,000, which notes are convertible into shares of BigString’s common stock, and warrants to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of BigString's common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $146,500 after transaction fees of approximately $33,500. Proceeds from the financing have been used to support ongoing operations and the advancement of BigString’s technology, and fund the marketing and the development of its business. BigString accounted for the convertible notes under ASC 815-15-10, and related interpretations including ASC 815-40-05. Approximately $35,000 of the proceeds was allocated to the warrants based on fair value, and included as additional paid in capital. Due to the beneficial conversion feature of the June 23, 2009 convertible notes, $168,000 was included as additional paid in capital based on the conversion discount.

Each June 23, 2009 convertible note had an original term of two years and accrues interest at a rate of 6% annually. The holder of a June 23, 2009 convertible note has the right from and after the issuance thereof until such time as the convertible note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion thereof into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.015 per share, as adjusted.

As a result of this financing, the conversion price for the outstanding convertible notes and the exercise price underlying the warrants previously issued by BigString in February 2008 and May 2007 and the conversion price of the shares of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock were subject to adjustment under anti-dilution provisions. The 2007 Subscribers and 2008 Subscribers (as such terms are defined below) verbally agreed to waive anti-dilution provisions related to the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants previously issued by BigString in February 2008 and May 2007.

Proceeds from the financing have been used to support ongoing operations and the advancement of BigString’s technology, and fund the marketing and the development of its business. BigString accounted for the February 29, 2008 convertible notes under ASC 815-15-10, and related interpretations including ASC 815-40-05. Approximately $76,200 of the proceeds was allocated to the warrants based on fair value, and included as additional paid in capital. Due to the beneficial conversion feature of the February 29, 2008 convertible notes, $186,660 was included as additional paid in capital based on the conversion discount.

Each February 29, 2008 convertible note had an original term of three years and accrues interest at a rate of 6% annually. The holder of a February 29, 2008 convertible note has the right from and after the issuance thereof until such time as the convertible note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion thereof into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.15 per share, as adjusted.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the aggregate difference between the closing stock prices of BigString’s common stock at the specified dates and the exercise prices for in-the-money warrants) that would have been received by the warrant holders if all in-the-money warrants had been exercised on the specified dates.

No warrants were granted during either of the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

No warrants were exercised and no cash received during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, no warrants were forfeited or expired.

Equity Incentive Plan and Stock Options Issued to Consultants:

On February 13, 2012, BigString repriced options to purchase 5,125,000 shares of BigString’s common stock under its Equity Incentive Plan. The exercise price of the repriced options was reduced to $0.02 per share and the term extended. As a result of this repricing, the original options were deemed cancelled and new options with an exercise price of $0.02 per share were deemed issued. In addition, the Company granted new options to certain of the Company’s employees and consultants. Options were granted at an exercise price of $0.02 per underlying share with 25% vesting every three months for one year.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, BigString recorded stock-based option compensation expense of $1,592 and $0, respectively. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Stock-based compensation expense was recorded net of estimated forfeitures.

Information regarding the stock options outstanding as of January 1, 2012 and changes to such number during the three months ended March 31, 2012 are as follows:

						Weighted
				Weighted		Average
				Average		Remaining		Aggregate

Options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were 9,125,000 and 0, respectively.

No options were exercised and consequently no cash was received from, and no tax benefit was attributable to, option exercises and no cash was received from purchases of shares for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

BIGSTRING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, options to purchase a total of 5,125,000 and 0 shares of BigString’s common stock, respectively, were cancelled, forfeited or expired with an aggregate intrinsic value of $0 and $0, respectively, at the date of expiration.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with the provisions of ASC 718. Because option-pricing models require the use of subjective assumptions, changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the options. BigString has limited relevant historical information to support the expected exercise behavior because no exercises have taken place.

The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the stock options granted in the periods presented:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2012			2011
Risk-free interest rate		0.4	%		-	%
Expected volatility		179	%		-	%
Expected life (in years)		3			-
Dividend yield		-			-

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a term consistent with the expected life of the awards in effect at the time of the grant. BigString estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of the grant based on historical volatility, expected volatility and publicly traded peer companies. The expected life of stock options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan is based on management judgment, historical experience and publicly traded peer companies. BigString has no history or expectations of paying cash dividends on its common stock.

NOTE 13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On December 29, 2008, BigString signed an agreement with Digital BobKat, LLC, a limited liability company in which Robert S. DeMeulemeester, an officer and director of BigString, has an interest, to provide business consulting services, including, but not limited to, management, product development, marketing, research, advertising and general business and administrative procedures and processes. The agreement renews annually, is subject to adjustment periodically, and may be terminated at will by either party upon three days notice. Payments are due monthly and are based on fair market value of the services provided, similar to the terms of a transaction with an unrelated party. In May, 2011, the parties agreed to temporarily suspend services. Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $0 and $69,310, respectively.

On April 2, 2009, PeopleString entered into a verbal agreement with BigString to license BigString’s messaging technology and share the cost of certain common services. At March 31, 2012, BigString was a significant, non-majority stockholder of PeopleString’s common stock. The agreement renews annually, is subject to adjustment periodically, and may be terminated at will by either party upon three days notice. Under the agreement, BigString provides messaging services to PeopleString users. The licensing fee was based on BigString’s experience providing services to other third parties and was determined by BigString’s management. Based on volume, BigString charges PeopleString fees that are higher in aggregate than BigString charges other third parties for outsourced messaging services. BigString recorded revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 of $6,000 and $10,500, respectively.

Shared services costs are quantified based on PeopleString management’s estimate of the percentage of time devoted to each company. Payments are due quarterly. In 2010, the shared services included hosting, insurance, rent and miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, and were primarily paid by PeopleString by year-end. PeopleString determined, in its sole discretion, based on its subjective estimate of the amount of time devoted to each company, the amount incurred and paid for the shared services that are allocated to BigString. BigString recorded expense of $30,878 and $37,121 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

To date, the Company has not incurred material costs as a result of obligation under these agreements and has not accrued any liabilities related to such agreements.

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

We have provided below information about BigString‘s financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. This information should be read in conjunction with BigString’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, including the related notes thereto, which begin on page 1 of this report. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the year-end consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in BigString’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Background

BigString was incorporated in the state of Delaware on October 8, 2003 under the name “Recall Mail Corporation.” The company’s name was formally changed to “BigString Corporation” in July 2005. BigString was formed to develop technology that would allow the user of email services to have comprehensive control, security and privacy relating to the email generated by the user.

BigString Interactive, incorporated in the state of New Jersey, was formed by BigString in early 2006 to develop technology relating to interactive web portals.

PeopleString, incorporated in the state of Delaware, was formed by BigString in early 2009 to develop technology relating to social networks. PeopleString is a separate reporting company under the Exchange Act. As of May 17, 2012, BigString owned approximately 14% of PeopleString’s outstanding common stock.

Overview

BigString is a technology firm with a global client base, focused on providing a superior online communications experience for its users. BigString’s goal is to make Internet communication more efficient, reliable and valuable, while protecting individual privacy and proprietary information. BigString has developed innovative messaging services that allow users to easily send, recall, erase, self-destruct and secure electronic messages.

BigString’s innovations in recallable, erasable email provide a new level of privacy and security for those who wish to protect their proprietary information and manage their digital rights. BigString serves three main email markets: free and paid email accounts for individuals, professional business email solutions, and email hosting services. BigString 3.0 email provides, at no cost to its users, advanced spam filters, virus protection and large-storage, web-based email accounts with features similar to those offered by AOL®, Yahoo®, Hotmail®, Google®, Verizon® and Comcast®. In addition to the equivalent features provided by competitors, BigString 3.0 offers erasable, recallable and self-destructing applications, non-printable and non-forwardable emails, set time or number of views (including ‘view-once’) and masquerading to protect the sender’s privacy and security. BigString 3.0 also allows a sender to view tracking reports that indicate when emails were opened by the recipient and how many times they were viewed. Senders can add, change and/or delete attachments before or after a recipient opens the email. In addition, BigString 3.0 allows senders to direct emails to disintegrate in front of their recipients’ eyes and allows senders to create, save and send self-destructing video email.

BigString also provides hosting, private label, and co-branded solutions. Web publishers and content sites may offer BigString’s messaging services to their existing registered member base as well as all future members that register. The web publishers and content sites are responsible for marketing. BigString receives advertising revenue associated with these marketing affiliations and may also receive premium fees when registered members upgrade service. In conjunction with contracts to provide email services to marketing affiliates, BigString may be obligated to make payments, which may represent a portion of revenue, to its marketing affiliates.

Building on the popularity of the social networking sites such as Facebook®, MySpace®, Friendster® and LinkedIn®, BigString’s social networking applications allow users to easily send and receive messages, notifications, email and videos that self-destruct on command. These rapidly growing, adjacent markets offer BigString the opportunity to leverage its capabilities in messaging and streaming audio and video to create complementary messaging applications. BigString’s development efforts are focused to address security and privacy gaps in social networking messaging applications.

In March, 2009, BigString announced the launch of the PeopleString incentive-based social network that pays users to receive regular direct mail and perform internet activities, such as email, instant messaging, video mail, online file storage, search and shopping.

For BigString to increase its revenue, BigString needs to establish a large customer base. A large customer base of free email and messaging services provides BigString with more opportunities to sell its premium services, which could result in increased revenue. In addition, a large customer base may allow BigString to increase its advertising rates and attract other Internet based advertising and marketing firms to advertise and form marketing affiliations with BigString, which could result in increased advertising and product fee revenues.

BigString’s marketing efforts focus on increasing brand awareness and consumer adoption of its messaging products. Promotions included email tag lines, organic search, paid search, banners, blogs, social networks, video and other viral tactics, multimedia, print, and radio. BigString has also developed product packages which may help BigString in achieving critical mass, including hosting, private label, and co-branded solutions, email marketing services and a video alliance program.

BigString currently markets to Internet users who seek to utilize the Internet as their source for email and messaging services. Generally, BigString products and services can be readily accessed through the Internet and thus from virtually anywhere the Internet is accessible. Email users can access BigString’s English language site, www.BigString.com, on a global basis, 24 hours a day.

In December 2009, BigString received a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for Universal, Recallable, Erasable, Secure and Timed Delivery Email.

During the past several years, BigString significantly reduced its marketing efforts from prior years due to financial constraints. BigString also reduced expenses in other areas, such as rent and headcount, to better position the company financially. As a result of recent sales of shares of PeopleString common stock by BigString, which strengthened BigString’s cash position, management is currently evaluating new marketing strategies and product development.

Certain criteria BigString reviews to measure its performance are set forth below:

●	the number of first time and repeat users of the services;

●	the number of pages of the website viewed by a user;

●	the number of free and/or paid accounts for each service;

●	the number of users of the free services who purchase one of the premium product packages;

●	the length of time between the activation of a free account and the conversion to a paid account;

●	the retention rate of customers, including the number of account closures and the number of refund requests;

●	the acquisition cost per user for each of the services;

●	the cost and effectiveness for each of the promotional efforts;

●	the revenue and effectiveness of advertisements served; and

●	the revenue, impressions, clicks and actions per user.

Critical Accounting Policies

BigString’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon BigString’s unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements requires BigString to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, BigString evaluates its estimates, including those related to intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. BigString bases its estimates on historical expenses and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Index

BigString believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. BigString derives revenue from online services, electronic commerce, advertising and data network services. BigString also derives revenue from marketing affiliations. BigString recognizes revenue in accordance with the guidance contained in the ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.”

Consistent with the provisions of ASC 605-45-05, BigString generally recognizes revenue associated with its advertising and marketing affiliation programs on a gross basis due primarily to the following factors: BigString is the primary obligor; has general inventory risk; has latitude in establishing prices; has discretion in supplier selection; performs part of the service; and determines specifications.

Consistent with ASC 605-50-15, BigString accounts for cash considerations given to customers, for which it does not receive a separately identifiable benefit or cannot reasonably estimate fair value, as a reduction of revenue rather than an expense. Accordingly, any corresponding distributions to customers are recorded as a reduction of gross revenue.

BigString records its allowance for doubtful accounts based upon an assessment of various factors, including historical experience, age of the accounts receivable balances, the credit quality of customers, current economic conditions and other factors that may affect customers’ ability to pay.

Stock-Based Compensation. BigString accounts for stock-based compensation under ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” The compensation cost for the portion of awards is based on the grant-date fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro forma disclosures under ASC 718.

BigString has one stock-based compensation plan under which incentive and nonqualified stock options or rights to purchase stock may be granted to employees, directors and other eligible participants. BigString issues shares of its common stock, warrants to purchase common stock and non-qualified stock options to non-employees as stock-based compensation. BigString accounts for the services using the fair market value of the consideration issued.

Research and Development. BigString accounts for research and development costs in accordance with accounting pronouncements, including ASC 730, “Research and Development” and ASC 985, “Software.” BigString has determined that technological feasibility for its software products is reached shortly before the products are released. Research and development costs incurred between the establishment of technological feasibility and product release have not been material and have accordingly been expensed when incurred.

Accounting for Derivatives. BigString evaluates its options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC 815-15-10, “Hedging and Derivatives-Embedded Derivatives” and related interpretations including ASC 815-40-05, “Hedging and Derivatives-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. BigString’s significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of BigString’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and BigString does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011

Net Loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, net loss was $267,307, as compared to net earnings of $973,774 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The $1,241,081 decrease in net earnings was primarily attributable to a $1,382,724 decrease in Other, net income related to gains on sales of investments.

Of the revenues generated for the three months ended March 31, 2012, $6,000 was generated from product and service fees and $0 was generated from advertisers, as compared to $13,122 from product and service fees and $4,165 from advertisers for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Index

Operating Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, operating expenses were $144,272, a $152,930 decrease from operating expenses of $297,202 incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2011.

●	Cost of revenues: Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $8,463, as compared to $14,003 for the same prior year period. The $5,540 decrease in cost was primarily attributable to a reduction in depreciation expenses.

●

Research, development, sales, general and administrative: Research, development, sales, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $135,809, as compared to $283,199 for the same prior year period. The $147,390 decrease in expenses was primarily attributable to decreased compensation and professional fees.

Other income (expense). For the three months ended March 31, 2012, other expense was $129,035, a $1,382,724 decrease from other income of $1,253,689 in the three months ended March 31, 2011.

●	Interest income: Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $53, as compared to $19 for the same prior year period.

●

Other, net: Other, net expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $123,800, as compared to other, net income of $1,262,478 for the same prior year period. The $1,386,278 decrease was primarily attributable $758,827 of gains on sales of investments and a $650,000 net gain associated with the transfer of assets pursuant to the Agreement and Releases with each of Alpha Capital Anstalt and Whalehaven Capital Fund Limited.

Income Taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, BigString has applied valuation allowances to offset the deferred tax assets in recognition of the uncertainty that such tax benefits will be realized.

●

At December 31, 2011, BigString has available net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $12.6 million for federal income tax reporting purposes and $1.2 million for state income tax reporting purposes which expire in various years through 2031. The differences between book income and tax income primarily relates to amortization of intangible assets and other expenditures. Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the annual utilization of a company’s net operating loss and research credit carry forwards may be limited, and, as such, BigString may be restricted in using its net operating loss and research credit carry forwards to offset future federal income tax expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

BigString’s operating and capital requirements have exceeded its cash flow from operations as BigString has been building its business. Since inception through March 31, 2012, BigString has expended $5,234,335 for operating and investing activities, which has been primarily funded by investments of $5,371,533 from BigString’s stockholders and convertible note and warrant holders. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, BigString used $132,019 for operating and investing activities, a decrease of $861,170 from the amount generated during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

BigString’s cash balance as of March 31, 2012 was $137,198, which was a decrease of $132,019 from the cash balance of $269,217 as of December 31, 2011. This decrease to the cash balance was primarily attributable to operating activities.

On January 31, 2011, BigString entered into a separate Agreement and Release with each of the Releasors, who are the holders of the Notes and the Warrants (see Note 10 to BigString’s unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein). Pursuant to the terms of each Agreement and Release, the Releasors have each agreed to forfeit the Warrants held by each of them to BigString for cancellation and to enter into amendments to each of the Notes held by each of them whereby the term of each Note will be extended by two years. In addition, the Releasors have each agreed to release any claims they each had or may have had against BigString through the date of their respective Agreement and Release. In consideration of the foregoing, BigString has transferred 500,000 shares of PeopleString common stock to Alpha Capital Anstalt and 1,500,000 shares of PeopleString common stock to Whalehaven Capital Fund Limited.

Index

BigString realized $18,826 from the sale of shares of PeopleString common stock in January 2011 and $740,000 from the sale of shares of PeopleString common stock in March 2011. BigString also realized $260,000 from the sale of shares of PeopleString common stock in April 2011. As of May 17, 2012, BigString owned 5,475,600 shares of PeopleString common stock, approximately 14% of the issued and outstanding shares.

Management believes BigString’s current cash balance of $103,887 at May 17, 2012 is not sufficient to fund the minimum level of operations for the next twelve months.

We expect to continue development of our messaging, email and related service offerings. We also expect sales, marketing and advertising expenses and cost of revenues to increase as we promote and grow our products and services. However, if our revenue and cash balance are insufficient to fund our operations, we will seek additional funds. There can be no assurance that such funds will be available to us or that adequate funds for our operations, whether from debt or equity financings, will be available when needed or on terms satisfactory to us. Our failure to obtain adequate additional financing may require us to delay or curtail some or all of our business efforts and could cause us to seek bankruptcy protection. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then-existing stockholders.

If the revenue from our operations is not adequate to allow us to pay the principal and interest on the outstanding convertible notes, and the convertible notes are not converted into shares of common stock, we will seek additional equity financing and/or debt financing. It is also possible that we will seek to borrow money from traditional lending institutions, such as banks.

BigString’s current officers and directors have not, as of the date of this filing, loaned any funds to BigString. There are no formal commitments or arrangements to advance or loan funds to BigString or repay any such advances or loans.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

BigString is a smaller reporting company and is therefore not required to provide this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on management’s evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

We review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
