The Small Biz Web is such a tremendous idea, and to me represents the future of web applications. I am curious to hear about what they've seen since banding together as well as what ideas they have for moving forward.

#3 "How do customers (and prospects) perceive the web application market" could put a light on some new, collaborative tactics.
