Wow, there sure are a lot of tech companies out there. Whether you're an optimist or a pessimist, you've got to admit that some of these cutesy-named start-ups, still chubby with the baby fat of early-stage venture capital, aren't going to make it through '08. That's kind of a grim thought to most. But turning grim thoughts into corny costumes is what Halloween is all about! So how about dressing up as Bubble 2.0?
Here's how to make the costume. Bust out that collection of Web 2.0 logo stickers (we know you have a box of them, don't lie), inflate a number of Flickr-hued balloons, and chuck the stickers all over them. Dress in Silicon Valley business-casual (jeans, sandals and a blue button-down shirt). Carry the balloons around.
Then you have a perfect pick-up line for good-looking partygoers you might encounter at Valley-area Halloween soirees: "Wanna help pop the dot-com bubble?"
