WebFund graduates:

Bookhabit was our first startup, and was sold to Smashwords in late 2009.  Smashwords has now merged Bookhabit's customers and content into their own system.

The business concept was:

Bookhabit is a market for fresh writing by undiscovered authors.  Anyone can upload their book, and readers can discover a whole new world of niche subjects and writers that traditional publishers can never service. Bookhabit enables authors to self-publish works online for free, becoming part of an online library of works available to readers all over the world. The site includes fiction, non-fiction, plays and scripts, and has potential for any publishable work.
