BlueTie is another email app that embeds Web services

Another company to check out in the space is BlueTie (www.bluetie.com), whose email and calendar app embeds common Web services for small businesses, like travel booking.

How long before Yahoo! ruins it and no one wants it? Well, at least Microsoft didn't buy it.

Will this cause more intrest in Bongo?

The Bongo project (Formerly known as Hula) is still out there. Wonder if it will see a spike from this.

After Yahoo ruins Zimbra what will happen to enterprise level open source communication apps?

solaris user?

Who in their right mind uses solaris? No matter how much you use it; nobody would still buy Sun Microsystems. Ironic, sun rocket closed down unannounced. Next is sum microsystems.
