  • Among the many consequences of the internet bubble of the late 1990s is an obsession with the very notion of bubbles themselves. In the most simplistic terms, a lot of smart people – especially in the media – are still kicking themselves for not recognising the dot-com bubble for what it was, and they're determined not to make the same mistake again.


    Thus there's been something of a death-watch around the property business, which has for the past several years looked very bubble-like, especially in California, Florida, and the Washington-New York-Boston corridor. There has also been an enormous amount of hand-wringing as to whether the internet media boom known as Web 2.0 is setting us up for a replay of the dot-com era.
