A lot of people predict that it could happen again soon but I must say that google while they have had great plans to guarantee their continued popularity the advertisement program they use is at great risk.
Hello, welcome to last decade?
However, I'll keep an open mind about your theory, even though I don't see it happening to Google.

Well, here, while it's still available (and quite appropriate)

Nothing is preventing history from repeating itself!
Well what I am saying is that this net based "economy" where no tangible goods are being produced could very well go bust very shortly.
But the major web players are playing it safe this time around so the come down should be less hard ... well maybe not as the money involved is much larger now than back in the 90s.
