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
“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 valleyfirst you need a buzzword
then a second and a thirdpick at least two industries
you’ll revolutionizefind yourself an engineer
feed him pizza, buy him beerGive him just a fraction
of a fraction of the pieneed a good domain name
must be cheap, can’t be lamesomething 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 switchhere comes another bubble
the VCs are backing
baby let’s get crackingblog, blog, blog it all
blog it if it’s big or smallblog at the cineplex
blog while you’re having sexblog 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 festblue shirt, khaki pants,
looking like a line of antsneed to get a facebook page
all these guys are half my agetwenty nice, past my prime
i feel so behind the timeshere comes another bubble
in a year we swear
we’ll all be billionairesmake yourself a million bucks
partly skill, mostly lucknow you can afford a down payment
on a small houseif you want a bigger one
hillsborough, athertonbetter hoipe the same thing
happened to your spouseIPO… luky you
have your cake and eat it tooParty yacht, party jet
why not buy a matching set?build yourself a rocket ship
blast off on an ego tripcan this really be the end?
back to work you go againhere comes another bubble
and when we are gone
this will still go onand on and on and on and on
the music is copied from Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start The Fire.
it is a great video which nicely describes web 2.0, blogging, internet startups, social networking and the complete online internet business
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.
