Hi Doug, An Access web app creates a site in SharePoint. If you are in a large organisation that already runs a SharePoint server, then obviously you would publish to your corporate server. Otherwise, you would most likely consider using a SharePoint hosting service of some sort. Most individuals and small organisations that have a website, do not run their own web server. They have their site hosted. Same with an Access web app - get it hosted. There are a large (and increasing) number of companies offering SharePoint hosting, most for a very moderate monthly charge. One of the web hosting companies that I use, webhost4life.com are offering an attractive deal. Other options are to publish your web app to Office Live, or SharePoint Online. There is also speculation that we may be able to publish to a SkyDrive site. I expect other options will also become available in time.
