A sour recollection of the last bust will have little bearing on the growth of traffic monetization activity (notice I don't say "advertising") of the next decade.
There is little reason to reflect on the folly of '97-'00, when the elements so conspicuously missing from those "busted" business models -- namely, revenue and profit -- are not only a standard of the New Web Business, but are eclipsing the asset-ROI of brick and mortar commerce by orders of magnitude.
That being said, though, we must hope that Wall Street does a good enough job helping the Investing Public to accept that, "Yes, we are actually printing money on the Web now..." -- :)
