I continue to see a trend with most businesses to move away from the self hosted, home grown, monolithic applications and move more to service based software.  While there are some big and well know players, such as Salesforce.com, there are many smaller up and comers offering a wide array of software services that do not require any on site software or custom development.

One compnay in particular, Feed.Us offers a wonderful online content management system (CMS) that in addition to traditional content management, offers many value added services.  The real joy of this system is you can get up and running in minutes.  You can transform your static web site into a dynamic web application with little to no custom development.

I really recommend you check out all of the features they offer...
