I may be a retard but at least I don’t call myself ‘The Dude’.

And by the way, by stating that I have never experienced never having found what I need is perfectly valid, I have changed the
second never to ‘not’ but in future if you have a comment, make sure you actually have a point before you start throwing insults.

About a week and a half ago, C|Net's News.com did an article that stated the same idea, that the majority of web 2.0 upstarts are building solely to get bought-out as opposed to coming up with innovative solutions to today's emerging web-laced problems or needs. There is definitely a difference between grassroots and canned entrepreneurs and I believe we're going to be heading into a tailspin within the next five years, resulting in an economic backlash as large tech firms realize they've just bought into a bunch of silliness. Then, unfortunately, they're going to repackage that silliness and force-feed it down our throats. Lastly, didn't Google initially offer a service like this, but axed it because noone bit? @Dave
