Though I was apprehensive about the all hoopla around Plaxo over the past few weeks, I must admit the unveiling Monday of the new Plaxo 3.0 was stunning and exciting… at first.
I started using Plaxo, oh, 2004? Earlier? Well, a VERY long time. I liked it because it gave me a very nice little interface between my Outlook contacts and an online interface to access those contacts. I can't tell you how many times I was saved when looking up [...]

One of the most innovative and interesting startups from the Web 2.0 Expo is a comprehensive development environment called Bungee Connect from Bungee Labs. This on-demand web development tool allows for the building and deployment of a large number of APIs onto the Internet. The scope of this service is vast, but perhaps the most attractive aspect of the utility is that Web developers actually only pay for the service once their application is making money.
Essentially, Bungee Connect enables [...]

MySpace is apparently branching out to challenge Digg and Netscape in the News Arena. MySpace News will bring the news to its huge audience with essentially the same user recommendation capabilities as Digg and Netscape, but unlike these sites will scan thousands of web journals and news sites. The new service appears to be aimed at solving all the problems not solved by either Digg or Google and Yahoo! in the news realm.
MySpace, like Google, will allow publishers to [...]

ZCubes announced the unveiling of their latest release CuBee at the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco. CuBee is an email system that allows users to send mail containing video, pictures, animations, marquees, graphs, vector images, text, and handwritten notes in any combination.
These CuBee messages can also be sent inside a digital envelope replete with emoticon annotation on the outside (cute). CuBee also sends messages either privately or publicly, and users can further personalize their messages by dragging them into their [...]

I ran across a simple little site called ekudoz the other day. The news site had been covered on a couple of other notable blogs, and I did not immediately think that it was all that news worthy. Given some comments on other stories about the relative "newsworthiness" of startups, I decided to tell our readers about ekudoz because they have a right to know.
Ekudoz is a simple little release, ostensibly designed to make the world a little better place [...]

If I write an article about "my" RSS aggregator, then in fairness I should write about a new one. Oddly enough a new one was just released called Fresh Reader, a productivity booster from sidefeed.  
Fresh Reader is a Web based, server type RSS feed reader that runs exceptionally fast. Fresh Reader is designed for either personal or corporate use, and allows for social bookmarking, mobile support, Intranet use and many other features.
The server based downloaded version allows the users [...]

Fuelmyblog.com has just been launched, and promises to be a popular online blogger gathering place. Kevin Dixie, a British blogger based in London and La Rochelle, France created the site to allow bloggers to publicize their blogs for free. Fuelmyblog also lets users recommend blogs to their friends and networks by rating each entry with votes.
The site is a little bit like a combination of MyBlogLog, Digg and Netscape, which is refreshing and fun. Kevin will be introducing a range of [...]

Next New Networks is a new startup by former MTV and Nickelodeon executives Herb Scannell and Fred Seibert. The cable TV innovators are getting back together to start a series of video web sites that they have dubbed “micro-networks”. The topics of these networks are to be niche topics like fashion, comic books, car racing and cartoons.
According to a story by Brad Stone of the NYT, the company will announce that it has received $8 million in seed capital, partly [...]
