The second market top in the NASDAQ tech sector has arrived. It took 6 1/2 years: YOUTUBE is purchased by Google for $1.65B. Try to watch the disturbing and constantly interrupted video (sent from their own 'YOUTUBE' website) of the founders hitting the jackpot.* youtube.com *I think an untuned 1972 Ford Maverick with 3 gallons of municipal water mixed into the fuel tank runs far smoother than this video clip. I have a T1 quality DSL connection. I'm less than 1000 feet from the Verizon CO (central office) I have a clean fat digital pipe to deliver me a constant stream of 0's & 1's I run on a new MACBOOK G5. this indicates to me the problems with the video delivery are not at my end. IN FACT, CHAD AND STEVE EVEN ADMITTED TO TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THEIR YOUTUBE SITE IN ITS THANK YOU MESSAGE!?!?! So what did Google actually acquire? Nothing more than a name... Is that worth $1.65B? I submit the GOOG founders purchased an outdated arcane internet platform from a couple of stoners who came across a fresh bag of PRIMO weed that they shared with the Google dudes. Party on man! Keep shuffling the chairs around on the deck of the TITANIC. And NEVER EVER let the music stop playing! Tim
