Abstract: We investigate minimal surfaces in products of two-spheres ${mathbbS}_p^{2}imes{mathbbS}_p^2$, with the neutral metric given by $(g,-g)$. Here ${mathbbS}_p^{2}subset{mathbbR}^{p,3-p}$ , and $g$ is the induced metric on the sphere. We compute all totally geodesic surfaces and we give a relation between minimal surfaces and the solutions of the Gordon equations. Finally, in some cases we give a topological classification of compact minimal surfaces.
