Sure there was crazy evaluations, greed, and ridiculous business ideas that would never succeed getting real coverage. But what I remember was the excitement that was around at the the time - that anything was possible. There were entire shows on prime time TV about technology and its effects on society. Sunday mornings had talk shows on the industry and where it was headed. There was this crazy show called The Site which was actually pretty good. Even the the DevNull cartoon thing was a bit off. There was real excitement around and people knew the world would never be the same.
