Bubblop

David Hornik is calling today's market Bubble 2.0, or Built to be Bought:

I even had one company pitch me at the Web 2.0 Conference that if all went well they would be acquired by Odeo (don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Ev's and I certainly think that podcasting is exciting, but it strikes me as a tad premature to bet your company's future on being acquired by a pre-revenue company).

You will recall the last time Venture Blog called a bubble, a bubblet that centered around social network, and they were right.

I'm wondering for the record, if I was the first to call this one, five months ago.
