Stockster it just so happens- hot off the press....from BFN....
The Company was privately-held and incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Company has just completed a successful reverse merger into a shell corporation.

Industry Background: The Internet is growing faster than any other mass medium in history, with traffic doubling every 100 days. Today, there are over 150 million people using the Internet. Conservative estimates of the number of Internet users by the year 2000, are 200 million, and 400 to 500 million users within 5 years. By the year 2000, Internet commerce will exceed $250 billion annually with another $4 to 5 billion spent on web advertising. Conservative estimates by Forrester Research and other highly respected industry analysts predict that by year 2002, online consumer and business to business transactions over the Net will exceed $400 billion. Other specific details are cited in market quantification.
There are more than 1000 search engines and guides on the Internet. About 80% of all informational searches are conducted through the top 8 search engines (i.e., Yahoo, Excite, Lycos, Infoseek, etc.). Most Internet users do not know which one to retain as their personal portal site, nor do they know which one is the most thorough and efficient informational source for a specific inquiry. Currently, users have to go to the start page of each search engine and do a separate word search, which is time-consuming and ineffective. Even though there are hundreds of search engines and guides on the Internet today, the web is ripe for a new generation of technology.
Why Will Future Net Users Choose Topclick? Imagine being able to find what you are looking for on the Internet quickly and easily without having to go back and forth from site to site to see if they have pertinent information. The Company has painstakingly researched market quantification and business statistics conducted on the Net (i.e., growth in Internet customers, e-commerce, online purchasing, advertising revenue and forecasts, etc.) and has generated a complete Internet media marketing business. Topclick provides customers with a one-stop information index to the top 8 sites by information subject and top 10 Internet guides. It also takes the trial and error out of the search process by presenting search results in a more intuitive, timely and effective manner. We feel Topclick has capitalized on this concept and functionality and has the potential of becoming a leading Internet Portal Site in this very explosive industry.
Why Topclick Deserves Serious Investment Consideration:
1.) Significant Revenue Growth potential, through: a. Topclick revenue/business model, which is designed around the development of a high traffic web site. This model is capable of generating revenue through: interactive business advertisements, traffic-click thru revenues from the featured Top web sites, e-commerce brokerage referral income from the sales of goods and services by linking to top commerce sites in their business previews sections, and internet traffic research revenues by partnering with a leading market research company. b. Strategic alliances with key information providers. c. Development of several revenue streams by Dec. 2000, including: direct subject information sponsors, brokerage commissions from electronic commerce transactions, paid promotional links and market research statistical analysis, and highly personalized information environments for paid subscription customers.
2.) Customer Benefit - by directing customers quickly to the best informational sources and guides on the Web. Customers will be provided with a one-stop information index to the top 8 sites by information subject and top 10 Internet guides. For Example: if one goes to the "Top Places to Start" and selects a category (e.g., Books), it will then present 8 top sites and 10 top guides (search engines) that matches your selection.
3.) Unique Products and Services - whereby few other sites on the Internet today can match their information guide and its FREE to customers. The site also features Top Internet Brands across thousands of information subjects, organized into 51 easy-to-use information categories. This allows people to quickly view and then select the best guide or site for their needs based on their choice of content. Topclick currently houses over 8000 Top Sites and plans to grow to 30,000 top sites over the next 12 months.
4.) Competitive Advantage - over its competitors since the Company has combined the top resources for Internet information, products, and services into a single-packaged customer interface.

Technical Analysis
Topclick is a new publicly-traded company since February 23, 1999, and has gone online with its newest search engine version 4.0! Their search engine has potential of being the "Top of the Web position" for tomorrow's Internet users. Based on the future business plan of Topclick and the explosive potential of Internet search engines, we believe the stock price has the potential to appreciate to exciting levels in the very near future. The Company has just completed a successful reverse merger into a shell corporation.
We were unable to apply technical analysis, because the stock has only traded for a short time. Technical analysis requires historical stock trading information in order to provide indicators/oscillators to determine valid entry and exit points. Therefore, based on only Company information, we believe that Topclick's trading pattern can be similar to that of EBAY.
We feel the stock is an outstanding investment opportunity and is at an excellent buying price considering its short and long-term potential. Investing in this company involves some short-term risk once a resistance level is achieved and profit taking develops. The short-term (three months) target price is difficult to determine for this stock, but we feel the price can reach $8 (~ 100% higher than today's prices), and a conservative long-term (6 months to 1 year) target price of $20 (~ 400% higher).
Conclusion
Topclick International, Inc. is a new and exciting Internet media marketing business that has aggressive plans to become "Top of the Web" for Internet users. Key factors mark Topclick as an outstanding investment opportunity: (1) significant revenue growth, (2) customer benefit, (3) unique products and services, (4) key management, and (5) competitive advantage over its competitors. Therefore, we believe Topclick is a new Internet search engine that has the potential of becoming a Top Ten Portal Site and yet to be discovered by Wall Street.
