"Google is just 15 years old, the Internet is barely a generation old and they are beginning to detect problems that affect privacy. More and more people are going to see things on the Internet that they don’t want to be there." (Source)

WiFi at Cafes
Getting a cable connection and sharing over wifi with your customers is a great way to not only have customers all day long but repeat customers. But the real reason why every pub and cafe should today install free wifi is because in a few years they won’t need it and they need to learn how to sell to the customers who can "work from anywhere".

Misconceptions About Bubbles
There are people in the tech community who think that me writing this post means that there is no "bubble". They think that by definition, a bubble is a psychological phenomenon that can only occur when people are so caught up in a massive upswing that they don’t realize the gap between value and prices. I’m not advocating that there is a bubble - I haven’t looked at enough data to make an educated assessment of the market. But I will say that words are just words. The psychology of a bubble is only important insofar as it influences people’s actions. The fact that people are talking bubble is irrelevant if investors aren’t adjusting their strategies and behavior. People are still spending without apprehension, throwing money at whatever the next hot startup is. Prices are rising and billion dollar valuations seem to be happening weekly. (Source)
