8 Free Web 2.0 Companies
Some guy named Boris* is buying domain names, creating one-paragraph business plans for them, and auctioning them off on ebay. People seem to be bidding, but mostly for less than the cost of buying a domain name. Either way, I'm never one to miss a hot new trend.
Here are 8 *Free* company ideas.
Here are 8 *Free* company ideas.
- PotHoleFinder.org
This mashup maps every pot hole on every street throughout the world, using satellite technology or something. People can map out their trip ahead of time and avoid holes.
- Re-Bay.biz
If people don't like the results of an ebay auction (for example, your company sells for less than the cost of a domain name) you get a re-do on Re-bay.
- CornerCurver.net
You feed it any URL and it re-renders that site with all the corners curved, saving thousands of web 2.0 development hours.
- ICantBelieveItsNotAJAX.com
I'm not sure what this one does, but it does it without AJAX.
- PleaseStopDoingThat.net
Similar to a distributed reputation management system. Users can enter what someone else is doing and the community votes on what the person should stop doing (by adding links from their blogs). Whenever someone joins the default request is "Please stop blogging."
- IWantSomeIceCream.cc
You can put a custom badge on your blog to inform readers that you'd like some ice cream.
- Boogle.com
Search site for Boggle players.
- BlogLibs.com
Madlibs for blogs. Pre-made blog posts, you fill in the half witty commentary and mundane details. I bet this one actually exists.

Hi Jonathan, that is a nice list you have there! How about this: sellthatplan.com (still available), a website where you can sell your domain + businessplan (max 500 words). Each plan that sells gives 5% to SellThatPlan.com and 5% to the seller.
Give me another beer and I'll give you another plan.

With trendy new Web 2.0 Companies...It's good have a trendy Web 2.0 website design.

Boris, thanks for contributing another great idea to the Web 2.0 mix. Once everyone's business plan is the sale of business plans, it is better to have a business plan of facilitating the sale if business plans rather than selling business plans yourself.
SellThatPlan is that business plan!
