I agree with Aziz in that I feel the second half of the decade will be very interesting. I think we'll see a lot of newcomers the second half...

Will, good point. My assumption is that the credit crunch will have some impact on the economy, but not enough of a negative impact to stop technology spending from continuing to grow. For example, I view online advertising as a secular shift that can weather the economic cycle.

I dont buy this technical analysis of the market. . . it ignores some fundamental issues with the economy. Mainly that if credit crunch reduces the value of real estate in the U.S. and commodity prices continues to rise - its inevitable the economy goes side ways . . . when that does happen, enterprise and consumer spending on tech is the first thing to go . . not to mention that online advertising will drop significantly too (which is really driving the latest 2.0 boom).

Seems like a good time, especially for companies like facebook to attempt going public. If Google doesnt jump into every online product, there is a good chance that companies like Zoho, Yelp and other up and coming players might consider going public as a better alternative. The next half a decade should be very interesting!
