"Un-sexy is good business" and other rules from Scott Rafer

> March 2000 to 2008: The Web2.0 Cycle

I don't believe that the "Web 2.0 Cycle" started right after the overfunded dot com companies with no profits exploded. There was a time of "nothingness".

That is when I discovered that if I build things myself no one could tell me that I couldn't do it anymore, I couldn't be fired, and my success was my own. I would put the web 2.0 cycle later out maybe around 2004-2005.

The guy has a point. I don't remember where I read it, but as the saying goes, "There's always brass in the muck" If you do things that other people can't or aren't willing to do, you can build a business out of that.
