NEWS FACTOR -- Nov 5 -- Microsoft has announced its
BizSpark program, which helps startups by providing software and
server products as well as marketing, tech support and access to
venture capitalists. Microsoft hopes BizSpark will help drive
innovation and create new jobs. Microsoft has also launched BizSpark
DB, a Web site to promote software startups. Markus Frind, featured on BizSpark DB, said not taking
advantage of the program is "stupid" because the software is free and
the program can dramatically decrease business costs. Frind runs the
Canadian-based company Plentyoffish.com, a free online dating site.
