Last year's list of start-ups to watch have refined their strategies, bolstered product lines, extended their customer bases, forged strategic alliances and strengthened their financial positions. One company, RiverSoft, went public. Another two - Loudcloud and Quantum Bridge -- have filed registrations for IPOs. Most have received additional funding, save for ePeople (formerly NoWonder) and Network ICE, which say they're doing just fine on the revenue they're earning. They're all still interesting young companies worth keeping on eye on.
