For users who have created simple desktop apps and want to webify, share and monetize them, they simply use Toolgether's Web Application Interface Builder. In five simple steps, the user's app is ready for sharing with friends, family and others. And, Toolgether even gives these users a platform for monetizing their apps by sharing in revenue when others embed the apps on their sites and blogs. Initially, the Toolgether Web App Interface Builder works for Java-based apps, but will later support other programming languages.

Toolgether lowers the barrier to bringing simple command line applications online. With Toolgether, users don't have to find a domain name and hosting provider, create a Web site, or code in HTML. With Toolgether's unique platform, casual developers, IT professionals, computer hobbyists and others can effortlessly webify their existing Java-based applications in minutes to create useful online Web apps that can be easily shared, embedded, and monetized.

Toolgether is flexible with no vendor lock-in. Developers can host apps at Toolgether, or on their own servers, desktop, and notebook computers, or embed the apps on a site or blog hosted elsewhere.

Anyone can use the apps and tools on Toolgether's site for free -- or pay a small monthly subscription to embed the widgets on their own Web site, blog, or Intranet. For developers, the site offers a place to distribute their applications and an opportunity to generate revenue from those apps.
