    Do you think Google going public will spark another dot-com boom?

    With all of the investor world's attention being brought to Google going public, I think this could motivate other dot coms, big and small to start going public.

    I don't think there will be all the hype there was back in 99/00, but I definelty think this could spark another dot com boom.

    What do you think?

                  Not sure about a boom, but it should do great.

                      I think it will bring things to a normal, realistic level. Not the craziness of 99/00

                      Still one of the best programs on the net.

                              Not really a boom, but it will certainly help people regain trust in .com companies I believe.

                                  definately the sites that have withstand the conslidations will have better chances of make money now then those that are started now.

                                  only take into consideration the big money spent on advertising sites like apple's itunes.

                                          Good topic, I think it just could spark more interest back to the net. Especially if they are worth that 50 billion.

                                          Good news for some, bad news for everyone else.

                                              Google has more then 99% of the dot-bombs that came out, like profits and a working business plan. If more companies like them do ipos, then it's good, otherwise the net will be screwed for investment capital
