Nice MicroISV Blog

If you're in the market for a powerful and user friendly Help Desk solution, please take a look at my company's flagship product HelpSpot.
Keep an eye on Phil Wright's blog. He's doing a nice job over there going through his new product.

Why can't we get good components for online products? Gosh I'd happily pay for quality components in some key areas but good component libraries for web development are so few and far between.

I think developers are afraid to build components for languages like Perl, PHP, etc because of the risk of an open source competitor but I think there' s a good business in there someplace. Hmm maybe UserScape product #2?????

Update: He also seems to do a much better job of staying on topic than I do grin

Thanks for the reference to my blog!

When are we going to see some screenshots of your application under development? Dont't keep it under your hat, let us have a peek!

Yes, geeky component equations I love it!!

I did post one big article on it here Phil:

I haven't had a chance to follow up as I've been putting the finishing touches on things but doing some more sneak peaks is on my list for next week so stay tuned.

PHP components I would buy

This is inspired by Ian Landsman's comment:
