People who say that the Internet is the bubble are incredibly misguided.
Certainly there are bubble-like valuations of certain companies, but I don't think anyone out there believes that we're going to go back to doing business the way we used to do business.
I still believe that the mission of Business 2. 0 is very strong, very fundamental, and we're really at the beginning of where they're going to take us.
Business 2. 0 was hugely profitable last year, and will be profitable this year.
It's very rare that publications double their frequency.
Rock stars are incredibly energizing to me.
You have to remember a lot of business is very cyclical.
I'm a history buff, and right now we're sitting on one of the most dramatic historical shifts that this planet has ever seen and we have a front row seat for it.
You've just got to focus on excellence and try not to be distracted by the news and the rumors and the absurdities of the stories that were coming out.
I think up until that time a lot of focus on Internet coverage was either sort of the bits and bytes aspect of it, sort of the high-tech aspect of it, and the sociological aspect of it, which is how it was transforming culture.
You can't suppress creativity, you can't suppress innovation.
There was never any danger of Business 2. 0 ever going under.
The collective energy of everyone is what really made Business 2. 0 exciting.
The magazine was being started by a company that had no experience in business magazine publishing. It was a little difficult to get people to sort of buy into it and to join the staff, but we did.
And I love writing. I've always loved writing.
See, what we were going to do was say, the Internet is this great business strategy tool.
You know, technology CEOs like to think of themselves as rock 'n roll stars.
The stock market can be down, but the stock market is not an indication of where people's spirits and enthusiam are, and where their intellectual energy is.
There certainly was a lot of potential in the air for doing a magazine which focused on the way business, in particular, was being transformed by the Internet.
