Today I found this video on one of my friends profile on Orkut. It is winner of the 2007 Webby Award for Viral Video. You will definitely love this video.
Here Comes Another Bubble :: Lyrics
==> If you liked this post, then why not buy me a beer so I can cool off?
“There’s absolutely no bubble in technology”
Peter thiel october 31, 2007
investor, Facebookgot me a CS degree
honor roll, MITmoved to Palo Alto
opportunity Knockedthought I had the perfect plan
took a job at webvantraded in my twenties
for a worthless pile of tech stockSuffered thought the market crash
lost a giant wad of cashPink slips, burger flips
would you like some frieshappy days are here again
lary page, sergey brintime to write a business plan
so i can be like those guys!here comes another bubble
it’s a monster rally
all around the valley
first you need a buzzword
then a second and a thirdpick at least two industries
you’ll revolutionize
find yourself an engineer
feed him pizza, buy him beer
Give him just a fraction
of a fraction of the pie
need a good domain name
must be cheap, can’t be lame
something cool like
flickr, meebo, wikiyou, mahalo, bebo
“telephone” without the “t”
“digg” but with a triple “g”
make your elevator pith
code it up and flip the switch
here comes another bubble
the VCs are backing
baby let’s get cracking
blog, blog, blog it all
blog it if it’s big or small
blog at the cineplex
blog while you’re having sex
blog in the locker room
babies blogging in the wombblog even if you’re wrong
won’t you blog about this song?
launch party, nicely dressed
what the point? sausage fest
blue shirt, khaki pants,
looking like a line of ants
need to get a facebook page
all these guys are half my age
twenty nice, past my prime
i feel so behind the times
here comes another bubble
in a year we swear
we’ll all be billionaires
make yourself a million bucks
partly skill, mostly luck
now you can afford a down payment
on a small house
if you want a bigger one
hillsborough, atherton
better hoipe the same thing
happened to your spouse
IPO… luky you
have your cake and eat it too
Party yacht, party jet
why not buy a matching set?
build yourself a rocket ship
blast off on an ego trip
can this really be the end?
back to work you go again
here comes another bubble
and when we are gone
this will still go on
and on and on and on and on
it is a great video which nicely describes web 2.0, blogging, internet startups, social networking and the complete online internet business
the music is copied from Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start The Fire. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKu2QaytmrM
It has badly described the status of software professionals.
find yourself an engineer
feed him pizza, buy him beer
Give him just a fraction
of a fraction of the pie
This is nothing but just the reflection of poor position of software engineers in business world.
