ZiaSun Appoints New CEO and President
SAN DIEGO, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- ZiaSun Technologies, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ZSUN - news) announced the appointment of Mr. Anthony Tobin, 53, as Chief Executive Officer and President.

Dated: March 25, 1999 /S/ Jennifer C. McMinn ----------------------------------- By: Jennifer C. McMinn Its: Secretary


Now how can Anthony Tobin be the President when months later, Bryant Cragun was still signing papers as the president.

We could further dissect the fluff and hype in the PR, or we could pull find other document dated after March 25, 1999 where Tobin is portrayed as the Pres., but instead I think it best to adjourn class early today to give time for this knowledge to sink in. For those of you perhaps looking for some extra credit assignment, you can write a 250 word original essay on why suing CM Burns is one of the worst things a man can ever do.

ZiaSun Technologies, Inc. 'Plug and Play' Program for On-Line Stock Trading
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- ZiaSun Technologies Inc (OTC Bulletin Board: ZSUN - news; www.ziasun.com) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Momentum Internet Inc (www.momentumplus.com), is about to launch a program that will allow brokerage houses around the world to offer secure on-line stock trading.

The program will work in almost any market and broker firms can elect to launch their own websites under their own brand names, or join Momentum's on-line stock trading portal website, Swiftrade www.swiftrade.com.

Currently, Swiftrade is geared toward the internationally-based investor trading on major US stock markets. However, Swiftrade plans to start adding other major markets shortly, beginning with Hong Kong and London, where it is already in advanced negotiations with well-established and reputable broker firms.

While development of the program and its encrypted transaction features has been tailored for brokerages joining the Swiftrade portal, it can also be used by brokerages to establish their own on-line stock trading systems.

Mr Anthony L. Tobin, President and CEO of ZiaSun Technologies, said that the program had taken a team of Momentum programmers four months to develop and would incorporate a host of multi-lingual information features from one of the world's leading suppliers, including stock prices from all major markets, the latest financial news, charts, historical data and analysis.

``What we have developed is virtually a 'plug and play' on-line stock trading system for brokers around the world,'' he said.

Any statements released by ZiaSun Technologies Inc. that are forward-looking are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Editors and investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements invoke risk and uncertainties that may affect the company's business prospects and performance. These include economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors discussed in the statements.
