Its pretty funny how everyone thought that people would all of a sudden do all of their shopping and such online.. some of the stupidest sites ever popping up, finding some investors, never making a dime but convincing people this was the 'wave of the future'.. hehe.

I'm sure the tech/internet markets will be strong again in no time, but I think they over-estimated how much people would use the internet for their day to day stuff by just a bit
