- Product Description
- Six Apart is the company behind the highly acclaimed Movable Type Web logging software which powers the blogs of presidential candidates, journalists, pundits and technologists, as well as the internal blogs of many Fortune 500 companies. TypePad, Six Apart's personal Web logging service, lets families and friends easily create public or private blogs, fully integrating text and photos. Its comprehensive and accessible features empower both beginning and expert users to reach the full potential of the Web log medium.
- Market Opportunity
- According to Perseus Development Corporation, which designs software for online surveys, there are expected to be 10M Web logs by the end of 2004. As Web logs move to the mainstream, they are creating opportunities for new software, tools, services, commerce and content.
- DEMO Says
- Arguably the leader in the still nascent blogging market, Six Apart is offering enhancements to its TypePad service that make mobile blogging, reading, and commenting a simpler task. We're putting the complete TypePad offering to work at DEMO 2004, as the "official blog" of the conference. - CS
