For me, December is equally exciting, as I screen the final onslaught of companies vying for a place at February's [EMAIL PROTECTED] show. While you have to wait until February to "unwrap" the selected 70 or so companies that will debut at the show, there are a few gems along the way that just won't wait until the conference -- gems we can unwrap now. One such gem I came across last week. WebPasties has launched to the market, so it misses out on DEMO on a technicality. Still, the site will be useful to lots of folks who want to build more functionality into their Web sites, but don't have the programming skills to sling the Java code to do so.
