Guy Kawasaki Crashes the Web 2.0 Party

Guy Kawasaki, the poster child of dot-com boom and crazy Silicon Valley venture capitalism, has entered the next generation of the Web using all the "right" buzzwords. "By the Numbers: How I built a Web 2.0, User-Generated Content, Citizen Journalism, Long-Tail, Social Media Site for $12,107.09" is the title of his latest blog post. Learn how Guy spent only $4K on lawyers, $400 on a logo, bought 55 domain names, setup a Wordpress site and used Yahoo! as the hosting environment. Too bad, the site didn't survive the Digg effect. Someone should remind Guy that social media sites need to be _running_ to be useful. (As of writing this post, the site was still down.)
