I understand the legal point, but I don't think incorporating should be a barrier to building another application. I wouldn't be afraid of pursuing different web 2.0 apps under the same company, but would definitely consider a spin off if one became successful.


Well, yes.

The key points are (a) when one interest starts to run in the red, you don't want it taking down your other interests; and (b) when your app takes off, you don't want to have to worry about app scaling and availability and converting from a sole proprietorship to a corporation or spinning off a company at the same time.
