  This little comment got me thinking about I heard recently. A gentleman (I 
don't remember his name) on a radio interview was comparing current internet 
technology with the advancement of motor vehicles back during the turn of 
the 20th century. Various economic models have been created using vehicle 
advancement into society as a basis. He says that there is basically always 
an economic S-curve until saturation across consumers reaches 90%. So he 
feels, since internet/wireless/etc technologies have obviously not reach 90% 
yet, that the 'dot-com' boom and bust of around 2000/2001 was only one half 
of the S-curve, and we will having another boom soon. What do you guys think 
about this theory? Another dot-com boom? Has work been picking up steadily?
