Here comes CozyBug Wednesday, May 23 2007 | Puget Sound tech news | Permalink Hard to believe that there's room in the online flea market business for another vendor other than the megalithic eBay, but Issaquah-based iCantu Technologies launched CozyBug earlier this month. It's differentiation is that it localizes online shopping to eliminate shipping charges – kind of a mashup of the "for sale" category on Craigslist within a more trusted setting. It'll be interesting to see how the company plans to get buyers and sellers to utilize this site – it'll be critical to its success. -posted by Rachel eBay not enough? Here comes CozyBug
