anyone who supports\hosts an application could be consideed a ASP....

I have a practice management app (healthcare sector) among many other types of apps. Some thick but mostly thin webcentric environment, (thank the good lord).

implementing - what will the application be written in, what is the target sector, number of expected users?

managing - backend server info needed here os, hardware, storage, connectivity, colocation or onsite data center etc...

maintaining - answers to the above questions will help answer this one.

Is this a startup or new job oppuruntiy or both?

Web services and Web browser-based applications certainly make a huge difference between the old ASP model and the new SaaS model championed by the likes of Microsoft. Have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/serviceproviders/saas/default.mspx
