WEBVAN FOUNDER TO TRY AGAIN

WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- Louis Borders is trying to keep his next Internet venture simple. With Webvan, the co-founder of Borders Books (BGP) burned through millions of dollars trying to do home grocery delivery. The more modestly-financed venture he is expected to launch Monday will deliver articles from newspapers and magazines online.

KeepMedia.com (http://www.keepmedia.com/) will offer a monthly $4.95 subscription to access a digital library from 140 magazines and a few newspapers. Stories from current issues will not be part of the monthly package, according to a description of the service by the Washington Post. But they will be available individually for a price of $1 to $3.

"A single monthly pass to get a wide variety of content from a bunch of quality, name-brand publishers is in principle a good idea," Michael Zimbalist, executive director of the Online Publishers Association told the Post.
