Yep, it's rock and roll shakeout time, just like most new sectors. This one was a bit more exuberant than some of its predecessors.

I'm still fascinated with the way the Internet enables transactions that literally would not have happened otherwise. That is a fundamental economic force that future economic models will have to take into account.

We are all a giant living Petri dish for the number crunchers to come.....

I don't invest in online merchants myself because they are so weak. Not surprising to see the shakeout start there.
