That looks like one of them thar new-fangled AJAZ sites I keep hearing
about..! :-)
If you're into history, I recommend the book High Stakes, No
Prisoners: A Winner's Tale of Greed and Glory in the Internet Wars.=20
There's a section where Ferguson freaks out because Navisoft is about
to launch at the same trade show where he's about to unveil Vermeer
FrontPage, subsequently sold to Microsoft for bucket loads of cash.
He also highlights nicely what a bunch of... less than nice people
VC's and hired CEO's can be. My other frame of reference for this
being ArsDigita and their disastrous VC story. A company built on...
AOLserver!
Great book. Small world.
