A key poster child for such an approach has long been Salesforce.com. Since it’s summer, and there’s a bit more space for spreading out (hopefully on the porch, with lemonade, in a hammock) and considering new ideas, I thought it might be a good time to revisit the topic of my previous column and delve a little deeper into new approaches for software-as-a-service.

Endeavors Technologies is a good example of a different approach to software-as-a-service, with impressive capabilities in the application virtualization and streaming areas.
