Yahoo! Help - publishing to Geocities using web folders
Finally it seems that web hosting and online hard drives are coming together. I have always wanted to publish by saving Word and Excel documents to the web. It has always been difficult. I still can't get Geocities to work smoothly, but I'm getting there.

Guardian Unlimited's Alex Brummer on First Tuesday?

Redherring.com: The outlook for Outlook
Another startup idea bites the dust. I've always thought that most internet ventures were aimed at the wrong medium. People spend much more time in front of Outlook than they do in front of IE. But there are 100 times as many startups designed for the web as aimed at the functionality of Outlook. Something wrong here.

Redherring.com - Are movies about to meet their Napster?
This was the startup I wanted to do next. I had it all planned out. A porn business disguised as a video platform play. Original "content" providers upload video files, specify how many seconds can be viewed for free, and the rate per minute beyond that. The punters plug in their credit cards. The platform takes a cut. A billion in revenue within five years. Oh well, good luck to DivxNetworks.
