    I'm not so sure about ISP's bundling services. When I signed up to Yahoo DSL they included this whole software package that I simply ignored. I didn't even install it. I just want the internet access. They use it as a selling point, yes, but most customers aren't buying access for these selling points. I'm not sure how well Earthlink did with their free popup blocker software, but I haven't heard about it lately. Did that do well for them? Not sure.. Personally, I wouldn't choose one ISP over another because of a bundled application. I'm just looking for the fastest service at the lowest price.

    Hey Scott

    Sure, but there is a market for all types of people, those who want the software and those who don't. Most of the time, the software is just a drawcard and not the actual product, and even if you don't want it, you will get it for free, and most likely, it won't affect the sales price (but that depends).

    All I'm saying that is that by being seen as not just an Internet pipe, but as a value adding services partner, they can tap into more markets, including SME's, etc.

    I think the increasing number of Web 2.0 start-ups is brilliant. Not only does it create competitiveness between the different start-ups trying to create or improve products to gain the market share and be the best while providing quality products and services to users around the world. It also improves technological advancements.. Who thought 2 years ago you would see something like Synthasite or Writely in your web browser?! Web 2.0 is a great way for the internet and societies to move forward! Everything has increased and become more efficient, online marketing is now going through a high, which can only keep climbing.

    Viva la Web 2.0 revolution! ;)
