    Now people want a lot of things ... but
    "Analysts are questioning the $20bn-plus valuation being attached to Groupon, the loss making discount site that has announced its plans to go public."
    Groupon does not make money ... actually takes money out of the pocket!
    Google only offered 6 billion ( which is huge in my opinion ). Form january till now + 14 biilions ... also think is to much.

    Yes there will for those companies

    The big facebook lie is that they have 750,000,000 users, when anyone who spends 10 minutes on DP knows that tons of those are just webmasters and tons of them have multiple facebook accounts. The actual users of facebook is a mere fraction of the number they tout. The stock valuation is a house of cards about to come down.

    Of course the internet is so liquid. The product is you online since you're the consumer and your the product they sell to advertisers. The freedom and the ability for you to just move from one location to another, makes the internet very unstable. I mean just look at Myspace people find something new and a half a billion dollar company goes almost bankrupt 5 years latter.

    The internet has been a cowboys land since it's founding, next to no regulations and any idiot and his dog can get in on it. There's no value factor to the internet apart from the people who use it and there very passive with the internet. The internet is like the expanding universe how big can it get and what happens next does it start to contract, will trillions of dollars disappear off global markets?

    You may call people who buy gold bars idiots now, but they may just have the last laugh son.

    I feel like twitter will eventually lose its luster. It receives a bunch of traffic, and has many users, but its surrounded on the idea of living vicariously through others, or caring so much about what they do. I honestly just can't see this lasting that long. If it goes public, there'll be a bunch of people that think there is so much potential, but honestly, what kind of potential does it REALLY have. 50 cent can swing the price of stocks, but when he starts pushing his new gatorade (i guess it would be vitamin water) 24/7, thus maximizing its advertising potential, the users will get pissed and over the whole concept. I'll let it grow, and short it. Hello groupon and twitter, welcome to the year 2000.

    There isn't a tech bubble because none of these companies are tech. Its a social bubble. I just wonder how long the social bubble will last before people stop putting money in it.

    that true and that not tech bubble or any dot.com bubble.
    Twitter have less active user while most of user are using application to tweet and follow people all around. No doubt that twitter only sell that cheap.
    But Google + will open to public soon, at that time , facebook maybe drop and twitter will getting worst.

    I would sure think that Twitter was worth much more than that.
