		<description>[...] Well it was a first for me. I made a blogger blush. In another post Tom raises the notion of blogging as a business and the net value blog links have for your site. [...]</description>

		<description>It's only tech-blogs that seem to be worth something.

My effort is only worth $339,913.28. I am more open to offers than Paris Hilton's legs around a night-vision camera.</description>

		<description>"How do we avert this second spectacular fall from grace?" 

By learning from history. We will attempt to answer this sort of question in my next blogoposium entitled &lt;em&gt;Lessons Learned from Web 1.0&lt;/em&gt;.</description>

		<description>Yeah I completely agree.  The only thing I would say is to strike while the iron is hot and get blogging, etc embedded into Internet Culture.  I was at the Empathy Marketing Morning Conference in the Guiness Storehouse recently and one of the points raised by Guy Phillipson was that after the dotcom bubble burst, people didn't stop using the Net.  Advertisers might have, but the public increased their use.  The same will happen after the blog bubble burst.

Unfortunately it happens with every industry.  I can't remember off the top of my head but the automobile industry in the States started with about 90 companies and within a few years it was down to half a dozen.  There's too much money being bandied about and nobody seems to be buying (by that I mean the consumer), so let's enjoy the wave while it lasts.

My one piece of advice would be to use the online conversation and voice our criticism, hopefully whoever has opened their purse strings will notice and tighten them a little.</description>
