It’s Still the Economy, Silicon Valley
Last week, the economy took a much needed breather from its toilet-circling behavior of late, with the stock market showing gains for several days running.
Who knows what today will bring, given all the volatility, but most of the big consumer-focused digital companies saw solid upticks over the last five days.
You could also feel the revelry at the South by Southwest gathering that started this weekend in Austin, Texas, with lots of Web 2.0 partying and discussions of a Twitterific-Facebooktastic future.
Maybe happy days are here again? Um, nope.
