I watched it twice and it seemed to me like they were more interested in taking the company public, getting on T.V. and telling everyone how great it was going to be than they were in actually making it great. Yeah I went to the website too and it was pretty lame.

It is a good idea. If I could renew my drivers license, pay a traffic ticket, ect from my house I would but like you say somewhere along the line it became less about the value and more about the glamour of what they were doing.

I think there was such a rush of investment into these companies because some of them really were taking off and people got caught up in it. They see companies stock shooting through the roof and they think, " we can do that too" and it seems like none of these companies ever actually thought, "you know some day we are going to need to make money for this to work."
