I blogged a little while back about deciding on a product, but when I really started to think about it I realized it's not really a product. The term MicroISV is most often used when referring to a software program that is purchased, the term "shrink-wrapped software" comes to mind. Granted alot of MicroISVs never really sell their product that way, but they could. Based on that definition I am not working on a product, but it is a web application. The site will be free but will make money through advertising, sure there will be add-ons and stuff like that but they are not the main product.
So, whether or not I am a MicroISV is up to you.... but I am going to keep using the term because I think more than anything it symbolizes an individual trying to independently write software that will hopefully put a couple dollars in their pocket.
