How to Kick Silicon Valley\'s Butt
From the fjords of Norway to the sands of Israel to the ice of Alberta to the waves of Honolulu, many regions of the world have Silicon Valley Envy. They look at the Valley as a place where people start cool companies that generate billions of dollars of wealth (and tax revenue), create thousands of jobs, and yet does not pollute the environment (at least compared with a smokestack). The question I hear over and over is, “How can we create our own Silicon Valley?”

If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it, but Wilson, Sonsini, Goodrich, and Rosati, one of Silicon Valley’s dominant law firms (as in Apple, HP, etc), has created a free, online term sheet generator. This is the site’s description of the tool:
Choosing the Next Great Tech Product Boom…or Bust
Holidays are nerve wracking for you, us, everyone. You want to buy just the right...thing. You don't want to spend too much or too little.

Africa needs a technology bubble
According to the WSJ, silicon valley is on the brink of another technology bubble bust like what was witnessed in 1999. According to the article the emergence of "strange" website names such as Orgoo and businesses whose sole purpose is to sell t-shirts bearing the logos of internet companies(check out Startup Schwag) is evidence of a bubble and its eminent bust.

Crossing Your Street Of Success
Regardless of what we read about in periodicals or hear on TV, none of us really know where our economy is going. While I have studied economics and on occasion have made some sound economic predictions, I am not an economist. Therefore, I cannot, nor am I going to, predict when we will see an upturn.
