Interesting that the 1999/2000 dot-com crowd were aiming to turn a profit eventually, even if they didn't know how. Seems like even that isn't a requirement in the current bubble... ;)
According to the linked article the episode was from 1998, which actually makes it fairly early in the game even for poking fun at stupid dotcom sites.
The modern version:
1) Acquire millions of users
2) Get acquired for billions of dollars
3) Not my problem
