Touted at the first Web2.0 application for enterprises, DabbleDB has launched and received its first round of venture capital funding.

DabbleDB makes creating and maintaining a database child's play, as the online demonstration will show you. In summary, it lets users import, sort and manipulate data and share it over the web.

But while covering themselves with a Web2.0 sauce, the company's founders are making a capital mistake by charging a fee. At their current stage, it's key to get as many people as possible to play with the application and create some kind of viral buzz.

Charging between $120 and $1800 per year ensures that few people will bother looking at the product.

It's a small effort to drop the fees for the 'individual' service while still charging users who seek more advanced features such as multiple user accounts and encryption.

You can't get to Web2.0 by acting like an old economy company.
