That magic bike delivery guy, Marvin, AKA the Flying Dutchman, keeps
delivering after his employer Kozmo.com went bust.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
Kozmo.com <http://kozmo.com/>, an online delivery service that was one of
the poster children<http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2010/technology/1003/gallery.dot_com_busts/9.html?iid=EL>
for the
dot-com bust, is back. Sort of.
The Kozmo website was resurrected this month, with a promise that it will
be "relauching soon with the vision to fulfill your online order incredibly
fast, and on-demand."
The old Kozmo would let you order items ranging from food, movies, books
and music, and it would deliver your order in under an hour, sans fee.
Believe it or not, that didn't prove to be a viable business model. It's
likely that Kozmo's new owners have something different in mind.
