New web site planned to trade US biofuels in eBay fashion

A company that specializes in online casinos announced this week it was taking a gamble on the US biofuels industry by launching a new web site devoted to the buying and selling of ethanol and biodiesel. USBiofuelsExchange.com (US-BX) opened Tuesday to "pre-register" producers, resellers and buyers, according to a statement from Diamond I, a development-stage company seeking to change its name to US BioFuels Exchange Inc. The official launch will probably take place later this summer after beta-testing, said James Kaufman, managing director of US-BX, in an interview. The site will seek to level the playing field for biofuels producers in the US, he said, noting "long-standing arrangements" between big producers and buyers have posed "constraints" for smaller players without the clout to lock in those sorts of deals.

snydeq writes "Fatal Exception's Neil McAllister raises questions regarding the transforming nature of the Web now that Tim Berners-Lee's early vision has been supplanted by today's much more complex model. AJAX, Google Web Toolkit, Flash and Silverlight all have McAllister asking, 'Is [the Web] still the Web if you can't navigate directly to specific content? Is it still the Web if the content can't be indexed and searched? Is it still the Web if you can only view the application on certain clients or devices? Is it still the Web if you can't view source?' Such questions bely a much bigger question for Web developers, McAllister writes. If today's RIAs no longer resemble the 'Web,' then should we be shoehorning these apps into the Web's infrastructure, or is the problem that the client platforms simply aren't evolving fast enough to meet
