My startup's a Wide-Area Bonjour service (DNS with client updates, long lived queries and a convention for service discovery) which squares it in the client/server camp although it does have a web interface. The next thing I want to do isn't a (strict) web offering either.
Non-web startups, anyone is doing these?

#42I am working on a service for game developers that lets them add multiuser activities to end-user apps (say, an iPhone game). The difference from other services is that we host referees server side to watch over or officiate activities. The referees are created by the developers themselves, and since they run server side, deployment, cheat prevention, and client app creation are greatly simplified. Client apps become semi-dumb terminals. None of this is web based.

#43My GF is starting up a business in head hunting in the energy sector: http://www.boolos.com/
predictably times are slow right now so to lift the profile of our startup she has created a blog at blog.boolos.com which is well received by her peers.
