PART I

Item 1. Business

Background

BigString Corporation (“BigString” or the “Company”) 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. PeopleString is a separate reporting company under the Exchange Act. As of April 14, 2011, BigString owned less than 16% of PeopleString’s outstanding common stock.

BigString Interactive is currently BigString’s only operating subsidiary.

Business Strategy

The email industry has migrated from an advertising model to a blended model that includes advertising, subscriptions and hosting. Email service providers offer premium services and products which include, among other features, value-added services such as advanced spam filters, advanced virus protection, additional storage, multiple email addresses and secure email. In addition to our free email service product, which includes the aforementioned features plus our proprietary features, we offer premium email services, products and applications, which are offered in several different packages at various prices and may be purchased by the users of our BigString email service.

BigString includes advertising with its email services. Advertisements are primarily displayed to users of our free service. Advertisements customarily include text and banner ads and are paid based on a mix of impressions, clicks and actions. BigString currently has agreements with a number of firms that provide advertising services. In the future, we may add additional types of advertisements and additional advertising service firms, as well as direct advertisers and sponsors, as we increase the monetization of our user base.

Certain Internet service providers (“ISPs”), portals, social networks and content providers use email as a tool to compete against each other. This strategy incorporates email as part of their offering because email is one of the most effective web applications in bringing users back to a site, multiple times a day, day after day. We developed email hosting, private label, and co-branded solutions to leverage the ‘stickiness’ of email and the advantage it can offer an Internet property. These solutions offer BigString’s unique email features under the logos and marks of web publishers and content sites, such as search engines, social networks, online dating sites, ISPs and social media portals. Web publishers and content sites can further their image and differentiate their services from competitors, while increasing incremental traffic, page views and ad revenue from their existing members. Agreements may include a revenue share arrangement, and we may also charge development and maintenance fees. Web publishers and content sites provide the marketing, which expands awareness of BigString’s unique services beyond BigString’s marketing and can help us grow more quickly.

Building on the vast popularity of the social networking sites such as Facebook®, Twitter®, 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 skills in messaging and streaming audio and video to create complementary messaging applications. Our development efforts are focused to address security and privacy gaps in social networking messaging applications.

In December 2009, we received a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office for Universal, Recallable, Erasable, Secure and Timed Delivery Email. The issued patent may help us explore new licensing and revenue opportunities for our patented technology, as well as pursue any possible infringement.

Promotion

We promote our messaging service and products through the Internet, including messaging and email tag lines, organic search, paid search, banners, blogs, social networks, video and other viral tactics, multimedia, print, and radio, as well as through alliances with marketing affiliates and programs contained on our interactive entertainment portal. We also offer fee based services, such as our self-destructible SMS text application, through online stores as a point of sale license purchase.

Index

Our promotions also include email hosting, private label, and co-branded solutions. The web publishers and content sites may offer our 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.

Market Affiliations

We enter into market affiliations with other Internet companies regarding advertisements and other marketing promotions which can be accessed through our website. Through these marketing affiliations, advertisements, such as banner ads, are posted on our website and may be accessed by our users. In addition, advertising websites may be accessed directly through our website. Our marketing affiliates are obligated to pay us a portion of the revenue they receive from advertisers as compensation for BigString’s sale of promotional space on our website.

We generate revenue when our users access the advertisements or advertising websites and purchase products and services. In addition, we generate revenue based on the number of our users accessing advertisements and advertisers’ websites. We also generate revenue based upon the number of impressions per advertisement.

Products and Services

BigString offers a web-based, POP3/IMAP server, email service solution. Our patented technology provides a user with the ability to manage and control content sent by email. The user’s email executes through the BigString server but such execution is transparent to the sender and recipients of the email.

A user of our BigString email services will have his, her or its email transposed from a text-based message through BigString’s server, and an exact, replicated image of the email will be instantaneously streamed to the recipient. The recipient never actually receives the content, but only receives images of the content.

The user of the BigString email service and products can transparently edit, recall, cancel, and erase the email as well as insert or delete attachments, even after the email has been sent out and opened. All the subsequent changes by the sender will be completely transparent to the recipient. In addition, the sender has complete control over the life and duration of the email. The sender can have the email self-destruct or disappear after a defined number of views or after a certain time period.

BigString’s current email service 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’s email service offers erasable, recallable and self destroying applications, set time or number of views (including ‘view-once’) and masquerading to protect the sender’s privacy and security. It 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 opened the email. In addition, it allows senders to direct emails to disintegrate in front of their recipient’s eyes and allows senders to create, save and send self-destructing video email.

Products Offered – BigString currently offers its consumer, business and enterprise customers the following packages:

BigString Free Email (No Charge), provides the features of BigString’s email service, includes unlimited GB email storage and permits the user to send unlimited emails per month. It is accessed by the user through the web as web-based email, or webmail, and each user is given one address. Individuals can signup for multiple “disposable” accounts. Wizards help users import previously saved contacts. To personalize their email, users can create an alias, create their own font, add signatures, add pictures to both their profile and their contacts’ profiles, create multiple expire messages, and create custom templates with editable fields and then access the saved templates to save time while composing messages.

·	BigString Premium Email ($29.95 per year), offers all the features of the BigString Free Email account, plus vanity domains (yourname@yourdomain.com), POP3 access using any email client (such as Microsoft Outlook®), 30 minute video email and reduced banner advertising.

Index

The private labeled, or white labeled, solution offers a revenue share of advertising and/or premium fees generated by BigString.

·	BigString Email Hosting (Enterprise level) ($11,500.00+ per year), offers enterprise level firms all the features of BigString Private Label Email, in a licensed package which can be customized to integrate with the firms’ messaging, networking and video applications.

·	BigString Exploding Video (No Charge), offers social networking members integrated self-destructing video applications through their current social network.

BigString continues to apply its streaming audio and video experience and technologies into its messaging, email and social network applications.

Technical and Customer Support – Technical and customer support for BigString’s messaging service and products is available by customers contacting BigString through email.

Historically, the customers of BigString’s services and products have required very little support. BigString reviews its support capabilities and updates and enhances such capabilities to meet the needs of the users of its products and services. In the future, BigString may outsource the support of its products and services to cost effective call centers or service providers.

Also available on the BigString website is a Frequently Asked Questions section and a comprehensive BigString User Guide. We believe that BigString’s Frequently Asked Questions section and User Guide usually can resolve most of a user’s problems. As we introduce new products or enhancements to existing products, we expect our Frequently Asked Questions section and User Guide to be updated.

Protection of Proprietary Rights

We rely on a combination of U.S. and foreign patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights. In particular, we rely upon our patent for Universal Recallable, Erasable, Secure and Timed Delivery Email, U.S. Patent Number 7,640,307B2; our patent application for Destroyable Instant Messaging (IM), Serial No. 12/060,406; our service mark for the word “BigString,” Serial No. 78/336,856; our service mark for the word “Our Prisoner,” Serial No. 78/751,930; and the protection of our proprietary information afforded by the Lanham Act of 1946, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051-1127; the Economic Espionage Act of 1996, 18 U.S.C. §1832; the Uniform Trade Secrets Act; as well as by common-law. The patent for Universal Recallable, Erasable and Timed Delivery Email will expire on April 18, 2024, 20 years following the date our patent application was filed. If issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the patent for Destroyable Instant Messaging (IM) will expire on April 1, 2028, 20 years following the date our patent application was filed. Our service marks will not expire provided that we continue to make routine filings to keep it current with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Under the U.S. patent laws, our rights to the intellectual property which is the subject of our patent and patent application may not be infringed upon by a third party. We may assert rights and provisional rights as to the intellectual property covered by the patent and patent application, respectively. BigString may obtain a reasonable royalty from a third party that infringes on a claim, provided actual notice is given to the third party by BigString and with respect to the patent application, that a patent issues from the application with a substantially identical claim.

Market

We currently market to Internet users who seek to utilize the Internet as their source for email and messaging services. Generally, our 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, http://www.BigString.com, on a global basis, 24 hours a day. As of December 31, 2010, BigString visitors accessed our site from 229 countries/territories, compared to 228, 223, 190 and 60 countries/territories as of December 31, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Competition

We have existing competitors for our businesses that have greater financial, personnel and other resources, longer operating histories, more technological expertise, more recognizable names and more established relationships in industries that we currently serve or may serve in the future. Increased competition, our inability to compete successfully against current or future competitors, pricing pressures or loss of market share could result in increased costs and reduced operating margins, which could harm our business, operating results, financial condition and future prospects. Many of these firms are well established, have reputations for success and have significantly greater financial, marketing, distribution, personnel, and other resources than us. Further, we may experience price competition, and this competition may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations or adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

The markets for our services are highly competitive. With limited barriers to entry we believe the competitive landscape will continue to increase both from new entrants to the market as well as from existing players. We remain focused on delivering better, more advanced and innovative services than our competitors.

Employees

We currently have six employees, a portion of which also share their time and expenses with PeopleString. At December 31, 2010, we had six employees. We believe that our relationship with our employees is satisfactory. We have not suffered any labor problems since our inception.

Darin M. Myman, Robert S. DeMeulemeester and Adam M. Kotkin are members of the board of directors of BigString. Mr. Myman and Mr. DeMeulemeester are key executives of BigString. Mr. Myman, Mr. DeMeulemeester and Mr. Kotkin are also key executives and directors of PeopleString.

Government Regulation

We do not currently face direct regulation by any governmental agency, other than laws and regulations generally applicable to businesses.

Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted in the U.S. and abroad with particular applicability to the Internet. It is possible that governments will enact legislation that may be applicable to us in areas including network security, encryption, data and privacy protection, electronic authentication or “digital” signatures, access charges and retransmission activities. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues including property ownership, content, taxation, defamation and personal privacy is uncertain.

The majority of laws that currently regulate the Internet were adopted before the widespread use and commercialization of the Internet and, as a result, do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the Internet and related technologies. Any export or import restrictions, new legislation or regulation or governmental enforcement of existing regulations may limit the growth of the Internet, increase our cost of doing business or increase our legal exposure. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Violations of local laws may be alleged or charged by state or foreign governments, and we may unintentionally violate local laws. Local laws may be modified or new laws enacted, in the future. Any of these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends as, if and when declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

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

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide information about BigString’s financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. This information should be read in conjunction with BigString’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, including the related notes thereto, which begin on page F-2 of this report.

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 on January 20, 2006 to develop technology relating to interactive web portals, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BigString.

Development Stage Company

BigString is considered a development stage enterprise in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, “Development Stage Entities.” BigString has limited revenue to date, continues to raise capital and there is no assurance that ultimately BigString will achieve a profitable level of operations.

Overview

BigString is a technology firm with a global client base, focused on providing a superior online communications experience for its users. We serve three main email markets: free and premium fee email accounts for individuals; professional business email solutions; and email hosting, private label, and co-branded solutions for web publishers and content sites, such as search engines, social networks, online dating sites, ISPs and social media portals. A few of the key features of our email services include:

·	Self-destructing video email that can be programmed to self-destruct after a specific number of viewings or a set time;

·	New tracking tools to enable the sender to know when and how many times their email has been opened and if it has been forwarded; and

·	Unlimited email storage.

In addition to our recallable email, we have developed other security focused messaging and social networking products and services.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon BigString’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires BigString to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, BigString evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to such items as costs to complete performance contracts, income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation allowances. BigString bases its estimates on historical experience and on 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 could differ from those estimates.

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 as 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 its customers’ ability to pay.

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.

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.

Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets. BigString reviews property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In accordance with the guidance provided in ASC 360-15-35, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” if the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by such asset, the asset would be adjusted to its fair value and an impairment loss would be charged to operations in the period identified.

Intangibles. ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other,” specifies the financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized, but are reviewed for impairment at least annually.

Index

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 consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 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 Years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

Net Loss. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net loss was $540,601, as compared to a net loss of $968,848 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The $428,247 decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to a decrease in operating expenses of $776,205, partially offset by a reduction in income tax benefit of $310,108.

Revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2010, revenues were $69,201, a $13,499 decrease from revenues of $82,700 generated during the year ended December 31, 2009. Of the revenues generated for the year ended December 31, 2010, $52,907 was generated from product and service fees and $16,294 was generated from advertisers, as compared to $54,733 from product and service fees and $27,967 from advertisers for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The 16% decrease in net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010 over the same prior year period was primarily due to decreased advertising revenues of $11,673. As of December 31, 2010, unearned revenue from product fees decreased to $1,303 from $1,649 at December 31, 2009.

Operating Expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2010, operating expenses were $182,060, a $776,205 decrease from operating expenses of $958,265 incurred in the year ended December 31, 2009.

·	Cost of revenues: Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $46,622, as compared to $62,163 for the prior year. The $15,541 decrease in cost of revenues was primarily attributable to reduced hosting expenses.

Research, development, sales, general and administrative: Research, development, sales, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $135,438, as compared to $896,102 for the prior year. The $760,664 decrease in expenses was primarily attributable to reduced marketing, professional, staffing and associated overhead expenses.

Other income (expense). For the year ended December 31, 2010, other expenses were $427,742, a $24,351 increase over other expenses of $403,391 incurred in the year ended December 31, 2009.

·	Interest income: Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $45, as compared to $68 for the prior year. The $23 decrease in income was primarily due to a decrease in cash balances.

·	Interest expense: Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $92,680, as compared to $84,224 for the prior year. The $8,456 increase in expense was primarily due to higher interest rates.

Other, net: Other, net expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $335,107, as compared to $319,235 for the prior year. The $15,872 net increase in expense was primarily due to no gains for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $126,882 in gains for the prior year, partially offset by reduced amortization expenses of $111,010.

Income Taxes. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had no net income tax benefits, as compared to net income tax benefits of $310,108 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, BigString participated in the state of New Jersey’s Corporation Business Tax Benefit Certificate Transfer program (the “Program”), which allows certain high technology and biotechnology companies to sell unused NOL carryforwards to other New Jersey corporation business taxpayers. The Program requires that the purchaser pay at least 75% of the amount of the surrendered tax benefit. BigString did not meet the revised criteria for participation in the Program for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2009, BigString accrued a net state tax benefit of $310,108 as a result of its sale of $3,849,878 of New Jersey state net operating losses. Gross sales proceeds were $346,489. BigString may be able to transfer its unused New Jersey net operating losses and research and development credits in future years.

Index

Valuation allowances for the years ending December 31, 2010 and 2009, have been applied to offset the deferred tax assets in recognition of the uncertainty that such tax benefits will be realized as BigString continues to incur losses. At December 31, 2010, BigString has available net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $13.3 million for federal income tax reporting purposes and $1.9 million for state income tax reporting purposes which expire in various years through 2030. 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

Our operating and capital requirements have exceeded our cash flow from operations as we have been building our business. Since inception through December 31, 2010, we have expended $5,356,308 for operating and investing activities, which has been primarily funded by investments of $5,371,533 from our stockholders and convertible note holders. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we generated $12,186 from our operating and investing activities, an increase of $367,934 from the $355,748 expended during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Our cash balance as of December 31, 2010 was $15,225, which was an increase of $12,186 from our cash balance of $3,039 as of December 31, 2009. This increase to our cash balance was primarily associated with the receipt of a receivable offsetting cash expenses.

As described herein, BigString participated in the state of New Jersey’s Program, which allows certain high technology and biotechnology companies to sell unused NOL carryforwards and research and development credits to other New Jersey corporation business taxpayers. On January 11, 2010, BigString received net proceeds of $310,108. BigString may also be able to transfer its unused New Jersey net operating losses and research and development credits in future years and plans to evaluate the Program for future participation.

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. As of March 31, 2011, BigString owned 6,125,600 shares of PeopleString common stock, approximately 17.7% of the issued and outstanding shares. 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 of April 12, 2011, BigString owned 5,475,600 shares of PeopleString common stock, approximately 15.8% of the issued and outstanding shares.

Management believes its current cash balance of approximately $1,009,000 at April 12, 2011 is sufficient to fund the minimum level of operations for the next nine months.

Our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-2 have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. As more fully explained in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we have a working capital deficit and have incurred losses since operations commenced. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to obtain needed working capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and revenue to cover expenses as we continue to incur losses. However, there can be no assurance that such funds will be available to us or, if available, 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. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

In addition, if the revenue from our operations are 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.

Our 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 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The consolidated financial statements and supplementary data of BigString called for by this item are submitted under a separate section of this report. Reference is made to the Index of Financial Statements contained on page F-1 herein.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. 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 December 31, 2010, 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 last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate control over financial reporting for BigString. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal controls over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of BigString; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of BigString are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of BigString; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of BigString’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Index

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluations of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of BigString’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

Directors

Number of Directors. Our board of directors currently consists of three individuals. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the board of directors may consist of a minimum of three directors and a maximum of twelve, as determined by the board of directors from time to time.

Director Qualifications. While the selection of directors is a complex and subjective process that requires considerations of many intangible factors, the Company believes that candidates should generally meet the following criteria:

·	Broad training, experience and a successful track record at senior policy-making levels in business, government, education, technology, accounting, law, consulting and/or administration;
·	The highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values;

·	Commitment to representing the long-term interests of the Company and all of its shareholders;

·	Sufficient time to devote to Board and committee activities and to enhance their knowledge of our business, operations and industry.

The Board believes that all of our directors meet these criteria. In addition, as outlined below, each director brings a strong and unique background and set of skills to the Board, giving the Board as a whole competence and experience in a wide variety of areas, including the messaging industry, related Internet industries, finance and accounting, operations, corporate governance, board service and executive management. We believe that the Board as a whole and each of our directors possess the necessary qualifications and skills to effectively advise management on strategy, monitor our performance and serve our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders.

Audit Committees. The Audit Committee of the Board is responsible for developing and monitoring the audit of BigString. The Audit Committee selects the outside auditor and meets with the Board to discuss the results of the annual audit and any related matters. The Audit Committee also receives and reviews the reports and findings and any other information presented to members of the Audit Committee by the officers of BigString regarding financial reporting policies and practices.

Compensation for Board of Directors: Currently members of the Board of Directors do not receive compensation for their services as Board members. In the future, the Company may adopt a policy which will compensate existing and/or new Board members. Board members may receive additional compensation for participating on Board committees. The amount of any compensation paid to Board members and/or committee members will be set and approved by the Board based on the Board’s review of compensation paid by companies which are similarly situated to BigString.

Chief Financial Officer - Employment Agreement

Mr. DeMeulemeester and BigString entered into a letter agreement, effective September 18, 2006 (the “Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which BigString has employed Mr. DeMeulemeester as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of BigString, on an “at will” basis, whereby either BigString or Mr. DeMeulemeester can terminate his employment at any time for any reason or no reason. Pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement, BigString will pay Mr. DeMeulemeester an annual base salary of $130,000, which base salary will increase to $200,000 in the event BigString participates in one or more offerings of its securities and BigString receives, in the aggregate, more than $2,000,000 in net proceeds from such offering(s). At such time, Mr. DeMeulemeester will receive a lump sum payment, subject to any withholding required by law, equal to the difference between (a) the total amount of base salary paid to him up until the date of the increase to his base salary and (b) the total amount of base salary that would have been paid to him up until the date of the increase to his base salary, if his base salary was $200,000 as of September 18, 2006. To alleviate constraints on BigString’s limited financial resources during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, Mr. DeMeulemeester’s base salary was reduced for such years.

Mr. DeMeulemeester is also entitled to benefits afforded to all full-time employees of BigString, including medical and dental, as applicable. Moreover, Mr. DeMeulemeester may be eligible for certain bonuses in connection with his performance, to be determined and awarded in the sole discretion of BigString’s Board of Directors and Compensation Committee.

In connection with BigString’s employment of Mr. DeMeulemeester, BigString granted him an incentive stock option to purchase 1,800,000 shares of BigString’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. See “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End.” The incentive stock option was granted under the BigString Corporation 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and is currently fully vested. 400,000 shares of common stock subject to the incentive stock option are eligible for purchase at $0.24, the per share price equal to the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) of one share of common stock on date of grant; 600,000 shares of common stock are eligible for purchase at $0.50 per share; 400,000 shares of common stock are eligible for purchase at $0.90 per share; and 400,000 shares of common stock are eligible for purchase at $1.25 per share.

In the event Mr. DeMeulemeester’s employment is terminated by BigString for any reason other than Cause (as defined in the Letter Agreement) after BigString is in receipt of more than $2,000,000 in net proceeds as a result of one or more offerings of its securities, or if Mr. DeMeulemeester’s employment is terminated by BigString or a successor entity for any reason other than Cause after or in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan), Mr. DeMeulemeester will receive a lump sum payment equal to two months of his base salary, subject to any withholding required by law, within three days of the date his employment is terminated.

No other officer or employee of BigString has an employment agreement with BigString. At the discretion of our Board of Directors, BigString may in the future enter into employment agreements with one or more of its officers or other employees.

Risk Management

The Board of Directors does not believe that BigString’s executive compensation program gives rise to any risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on BigString. Executive officers are compensated on a salary basis and have not been awarded any bonuses or other compensation in 2010 and 2009 that might encourage the taking of unnecessary or excessive risks that threaten the long-term value of BigString. The Board has sought to align the interests of the executive officers with the long-term interests of BigString and its stockholders though grants of stock options under the Equity Incentive Plan, thereby giving the executive officers additional motivation to protect the long-term value of BigString.

BigString Corporation

Red Bank, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of BigString Corporation and Subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully explained in Note 2 to the Company's consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit and has incurred losses since operations commenced. The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to obtain working capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and revenue to cover expenses as the Company continues to incur losses. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

BIGSTRING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009 AND THE PERIOD OCTOBER 8, 2003

(DATE OF FORMATION) THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2010

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

ORGANIZATION

BigString Corporation (the “Company” or “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. After purchases of PeopleString common stock by investors in April 2009, BigString owned less than 30% of PeopleString’s outstanding common stock at December 31, 2010.

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.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including but not limited to those related to such items as costs to complete performance contracts, income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on 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 could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

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

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents include short-term investments in United States treasury bills and commercial paper with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. At December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, cash and cash equivalents approximated $15,000 and $3,000, respectively.

CERTAIN RISKS AND CONCENTRATION

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.

The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality financial institutions and commercial issuers of short term paper.

Index

BIGSTRING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company grants credit to customers based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, sometimes without requiring collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer’s financial condition. The Company controls its exposure to credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures and establishes allowances for anticipated losses.

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 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.

DEPRECIATION

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated primarily using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of these assets.

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.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs incurred by the Company are expensed as incurred.

EVALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

BigString reviews property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In accordance with the guidance provided in ASC 360-15-35, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” if the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by such asset, the asset would be adjusted to its fair value and an impairment loss would be charged to operations in the period identified.

INTANGIBLES

ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other,” specifies the financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized, but are reviewed for impairment at least annually.

Other intangibles are tested annually for impairment. If events indicate that impairment could exist, a recoverability test is performed comparing future net cash flows from the asset to the carrying value of the asset. If the recoverability test indicates the asset is impaired and the asset carrying amount is greater than fair market value, an impairment charge adjusts the carrying value to fair market value.

Debt issue costs were deferred and amortized in other income (expense) over the terms of the related debts. BigString issued notes in June 2009, August 2008, February 2008 and May 2007 and incurred issuance costs of $33,552, $18,977, $91,706 and $248,939, respectively, which are being amortized over the term of the notes, and are included in other current assets. Amortization expense related to these costs is included in other, net in the consolidated statement of operations.

INCOME TAXES

BigString accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach under which deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted tax rates applicable to future years to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of reported assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to the amount estimated more likely than not to be realized.

The principal items giving rise to deferred taxes are timing differences between book and tax assets, other expenditures and a net operating loss carryforward.

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 issues shares of common stock to non-employees as stock-based compensation. BigString accounts for the services using the fair market value of the consideration issued, generally measured at the closing price of BigString’s common stock on the date of the agreement. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString recorded compensation expense of $0, $113,889 and $1,275,751, respectively, in connection with the issuance of shares of common stock to non-employees. For the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString also recorded $250,000 of other non-cash compensation expense for shares of common stock issued to non-employees.

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. The fair values of the stock options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString recorded compensation expense of $361, $86,782 and $601,416, respectively, in connection with the issuance of stock options. BigString did not grant stock options prior to 2006.

BigString issues stock purchase warrants to non-employees as stock-based compensation. The fair values of the stock purchase warrants are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString recorded compensation expense of $0, $15,037 and $324,530, respectively, in connection with the issuance of stock purchase warrants for services. For the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString also recorded $19,094 other non-cash compensation expense, net for the cancellation and issue of warrants.

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.”

BENEFICIAL CONVERSION FEATURE

When debt or equity is issued which is convertible into common stock at a discount from the common stock market price at the date the debt or equity is issued, a beneficial conversion feature for the difference between the closing price and the conversion price multiplied by the number of shares issuable upon conversion is recognized. The beneficial conversion feature is presented as a discount to the related debt or a dividend to the related equity, with an offsetting amount increasing additional paid-in capital.

EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

BigString accounts for non-marketable investments using the equity method of accounting if the investment gives it the ability to exercise significant influence over, but not control of, an investee. Significant influence generally exists if there is an ownership interest representing between 20% and 50% of the voting stock of the investee. Under the equity method of accounting, investments are stated at initial cost and are adjusted for additional investments and their proportionate share of earnings or losses and distributions. BigString records its share of the investee’s earnings or losses in earnings (losses) from unconsolidated entities, net of income taxes, in its consolidated statement of operations. Equity investments of less than 20% are stated at cost; the cost is not adjusted for its proportionate share of the earnings or losses. BigString evaluates its equity investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such investments may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value. When evidence of a loss in value has occurred, BigString compares fair value of the investment to its carrying value to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value and management considers the decline to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized as impairment in the consolidated financial statements.

NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The FASB has published an update to the accounting guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures as it relates to investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). This accounting guidance permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This update also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments, about the attributes of investments included within the scope of this update. The guidance in this update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

For the year ended December 31, 2010, BigString’s consolidated financial statements reflect a net loss of $540,601, net cash provided by operations of $12,186, a working capital deficit of $1,439,173, a stockholders’ deficit accumulated during the development stage of $15,663,494 and a cumulative net loss of $15,183,494. These matters raise 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.

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 of April 12, 2011, BigString owned 5,475,600 shares of PeopleString common stock, approximately 15.8% of the issued and outstanding shares.

As a result of these sales of PeopleString common stock, BigString believes it has sufficient capital to fund operations for at least the next nine 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. 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 December 31, 2010 and 2009, 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 is determined based on the most recent private placement per share purchase price for PeopleString’s common stock and is categorized as Level 2. The Company does not have any financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as Level 3 and there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

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 December 31, 2010 and 2009:

			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)

There were no financial assets accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

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 December 31, 2010 and 2009.

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES

BigString applies the provisions of the ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” 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 December 31, 2010 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:

	December 31,
	2010			2009
Deferred tax assets - current	Tax Effect			Tax Effect
Benefit due to loss carryforward	$	5,314,223		$	5,125,013
Valuation allowance		(5,314,223	)		(5,125,013	)
	$	-		$	-

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 examinations. 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.

BigString has participated in the state of New Jersey’s Corporation Business Tax Benefit Certificate Transfer program (the “Program”), which allows certain high technology and biotechnology companies to sell unused net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards to other New Jersey corporation business taxpayers. The Program requires that the purchaser pay at least 75% of the amount of the surrendered tax benefit. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, BigString recorded a net state tax benefit of $0, $310,108 and $997,099, respectively, as a result of its sale of New Jersey state net operating losses and New Jersey state research and development credits. Since New Jersey law provides that net operating losses can be carried over for up to seven years, BigString may be able to transfer its unused New Jersey net operating losses in future years.

At December 31, 2010, BigString has available NOL carry forwards of approximately $13.3 million for federal income tax reporting purposes and $1.9 million for state income tax reporting purposes which expire in various years through 2030. 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 NOL and research credit carry forwards may be limited, and, as such, BigString’s NOL carry forwards available to offset future federal taxable income may be limited. Similarly, BigString may be restricted in using its research credit carry forwards to offset future federal income tax expense.

NOTE 11. 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. 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 convertible notes, $168,000 was included as additional paid in capital based on the conversion discount.

Each convertible note has a term of two years and accrues interest at a rate of 6% annually. The holder of a convertible note shall have 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. The conversion price and number and kind of shares to be issued upon conversion of the convertible notes are subject to adjustment from time to time. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.015 per share, as adjusted. The number of shares of common stock underlying each warrant and the exercise price are subject to certain adjustments.

At December 31, 2010, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of these convertible notes was $75,000.

In connection with the June 23, 2009 financing, BigString paid Whalehaven Capital Fund Limited $6,000, Alpha Capital Anstalt $6,000 and Excalibur Special Opportunities LP $2,400 for finder’s fees.

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.

BigString incurred transaction fees of approximately $19,000. BigString accounted for the convertible feature of the notes under ASC 815-15-10, and related interpretations including ASC 815-40-05. Due to the conversion rights only upon an event of default, $2,080 was included as additional paid in capital based on a weighted conversion discount. The warrants did not have a conversion discount, and accordingly, no proceeds were allocated to the warrants based on fair value, nor included as additional paid in capital.

As a result of this financing, the conversion price for the outstanding convertible notes and the exercise price and number of shares of common stock 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.

In December 2008, all amounts due under the notes were paid by BigString, including accrued interest of $9,328, and, as a result, the notes were cancelled.

On February 29, 2008, BigString entered into a Subscription Agreement with Whalehaven Capital Fund Limited, Alpha Capital Anstalt and Excalibur Small Cap Opportunities LP (collectively, the “2008 Subscribers”), pursuant to which the 2008 Subscribers purchased convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $700,000, which notes are convertible into shares of BigString’s common stock, and warrants to purchase up to 2,333,333 shares of BigString's common stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $608,000 after transaction fees of approximately $92,000. BigString accounted for the 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 convertible notes, $186,660 was included as additional paid in capital based on the conversion discount.

Equity Incentive Plan and Stock Options Issued to Consultants:

Under the Equity Incentive Plan, incentive and nonqualified stock options and rights to purchase BigString’s common stock may be granted to eligible participants.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, BigString recorded a consulting expense of $47,775 in connection with the contractual relationship between Kieran Vogel and BigString related to Mr. Vogel’s participation in BigString’s OurPrisoner program. These stock options were granted outside of the Equity Incentive Plan.

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 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

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 on December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the exercise prices for in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders if all in-the-money warrants had been exercised on December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Options granted during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were 0 and 0, respectively. For the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, options to purchase a total of 12,650,100 shares of BigString’s common stock were granted. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0.00 and $0.00, respectively.

No options were exercised, and no cash received from option exercises and purchases of shares for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010. The total tax benefit attributable to options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010 was $0.

During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010, options to purchase a total of 2,200,000, 800,000 and 5,700,000 shares of BigString’s common stock were cancelled, forfeited or expired with an aggregate intrinsic value of $0 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 BigString’s common stock has been publicly traded only since May 1, 2006.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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

							Period
							October 8, 2003
	Years Ended						(Date of Formation)
	December 31,						Through
	2010			2009			December 31, 2010
Risk-free interest rate		-	%		-	%		3.52	%
Expected volatility		-	%		-	%		67	%
Expected life (in years)		-			-			2.0
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 15. 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. Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period October 8, 2003 (Date of Formation) through December 31, 2010 were $78,436, $30,000 and $120,436, respectively.

On April 2, 2009, PeopleString entered into a verbal agreement with BigString, a related party, to license BigString’s messaging technology and share the cost of certain common services. At December 31, 2010, 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. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amount incurred by PeopleString for the licensing was $42,000 and $33,000, respectively.

Shared services costs are quantified based on management’s estimate of the percentage of time devoted to each company. Payments are due quarterly. In 2009, the shared services included hosting, insurance, rent, payroll and miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, and were primarily paid by BigString. In 2010, the shared services included hosting, insurance, rent and miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, and were primarily paid by PeopleString by year-end. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amount expensed to BigString by PeopleString for the shared expense was $5,403 and $132,340, respectively. PeopleString’s management determined, in their sole discretion, based on their subjective estimate of the amount of time devoted to each company, the amount incurred and paid for the shared services that is allocated to PeopleString.
