Also at the Web 2.0 Expo: Bungee Labs, which is starting to drop hints about its Bungee Connect product.
Connect is a "100% on-demand web development and deployment environment" that launches in May. So what is it? Without going too deep into dev speak, it's an IDE (integrated development environment) for building rich Ajax web apps. Among its strengths: automated support for the integration of SOAP and REST-based web services and the ability to deploy apps without using FTP (apps are deployed through the browser). They're working with Amazon, Ebay, Google, Windows Live, PayPal, RealNetworks, Salesforce.com, Yahoo and more to make sure Bungee Connect works with all their web services (read: lots of mashable APIs).
