Glide Effortless to Compete in File Sharing Market

Dotnaught writes "InformationWeek is running a story about a new consumer application suite called Glide Effortless that's slated to be released in mid-November. Think of it as iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iCal, Mail, document sharing, shopping, and a few other apps all in one seamless application hosted as a service on the Web that could be accessed by any browser on any computer. It allows file sharing without the risk of illegal copying. It might prove a viable competitor to iTunes, if it works as advertised and if it can scale to handle millions of users."

The problem with your nephew James and his testicles....is that nobody cares.

While yes, it is private- there is really no incentive for anyone to do anything with it. With potentially millions of customers, things like this just fall into the category of 'noise'.
