Tulip Mania is a reference to stock price bubble. I NET is here to stay and will only get bigger as a tool and form of entertainment.. It's hypsters and day traders who have created this bubble, when it bursts then Investors will pour in. All business values have to ultimately conform to earnings , most I nets (bii included) grossly overvalued relative to the next 3 yr. earning curve IMO. Anyone giving values to I nets with a longer horrizon will find that as the bus replaced the trains and airlines replaced the busses todays hot company will be replaced by tommorrows new tech . I find it interesting the big hypsters from this thread very absent last few days .

Driving home in Etobicoke, and saw a billboard for BID.com. It said "SHOP NAKED". First public advertisement I have seen, and it did catch my eye although I do know the company. Could be very positive exposure for the company. Hits on the website should start increasing. Regards, Wisam

I just watched CBC TV Business World and they had a wicked, wicked internet e-commerce advertisement on the show. Not only did the lady and her son sitting in front of the computer choose a shirt in less than a minute, by following the regular procedure of picking out the style from about 20 shirts on the screen, each time she made a click, then blowing up the thumb nail shirt, change the color on the shirt with one click, but it looks like there's a "new feature" now. A click on this lady in the corner of the screen, and she becomes activated (talks to you live) and takes your order live on screen. FANTASTIC, A SHIRT ORDERED IN LESS THAN 1 MINUTE.!!! Is this something new.?? This is not the old slow poke home Shopping TV stuff where you have to wait a week before a shirt pops up on the screen.!!
