Yes, Web 2.0 is over-hyped. Yes, talk about another “bubble” is silly. Or is it?
Aqeel at BigBlueBall pointed out this story on Wired about a guy who has started a company that will sell rooftop advertising, ostensibly for viewing via Google Earth and Google Maps and other sites with satellite imagery.
Colin Fitz-Gerald runs a roofing business in Massachusetts and has started a company called RoofShout to create promotional messages on rooftops.
“I’m currently launching RoofShout.com with no money, no real experience running a business on the internet, and no real solid business plan,” Fitz-Gerald said. “But I figure there’s a lot of blank roofs and a lot of advertising that could go on the roofs.”
No experience? No business plan? Sounds a lot like the bubble days.
