Differences between the first dot com boom and the second dot com boom

So here’s some differences between the first dot com boom and the second dot com boom:

  1. Successful businesses need to have a viable business plan
  2. A great idea is not enough – it needs to be executed well
  3. There needs to be a revenue stream (except for Meebo?)
  4. New businesses run on the smell of an oily rag rather than million dollar IPOs
  5. New businesses actually make money.
