This latest acquisition firmly solidifies my belief that Web 2.0 is here to stay and the Nasdaq is on it’s way up. VC’s are pouring money into Web 2.0 companies and top execs are leaving their jobs for a piece of the action - I mean, seriously - making $1.6bn in 18 months is not exactly roughing it. This is not going to stop any time soon and given the exec drain that the titans are going to experience, the only way that they are going to keep ahead is by acquiring top companies and executive teams.
