Bob Williams sure looks like someone out of the last Internet bubble. He's a general partner at Bay Partners, where four of the five companies the venture capital firm invested in last quarter are Internet-based. Last week, his firm backed a Microsoft spin-off called Wallop, hitching on to the online social networking craze that brought MySpace.com a $580 million buyout.

What a load of crap. The reason we are not in a tech boom is because companies are too greedy. That fact alone stifles innovation and keeps us moving along at a snails pace when it comes to new tech.

The current mentality is; Why make something better when we are making enough money from the current stuff.
