I worry that all this start-up cheerleading is going to attract the wrong kind of crowd. It will also attract more of the <i>right</i> kind of crowd, but it will also be time to start watching out (a little more carefully) for clueless wannabes and hucksters.<p>I guess anyone who was working in IT in the 90s will know that already though.<p>Note, I don't think it's really a bubble (though if things keep growing there will be). There's more money coming in from consumers, and less opportunities elsewhere, so software is hot. But like any successful ecosystem, it will attract predators and scavengers eventually (though hopefully things are still OK).
