MicroISV

One person software companies. There's a fashion for experimenting with them.

Of course the culture really took off with MobileApps

Term coined by EricSink :

It's an older idea, but it seems to be back with IndieHackers (and even, I guess, AmericanExistentialism)

The MicroISV blog seems to have ended in 2007 : http://www.microisv.com/ Concept to software 7-days : http://www.microisv.com/archives/2006/03/06/conception-to-sales-in-7-days-can-it-be-done/#more-223

Every now and then I almost consider trying to push one of my software projects as a commercial rather than FreeSoftware product. But not sure I can cure myself of UnfinishedProjects and get FinishednessThinking?

Also I should remember InDefenceOfIntellectualProperty

DanBricklin's Software Garden was one, but seems on hold : http://www.softwaregarden.com/
