No, a lot of people ARE angry about it, and not because of the money. The Web 2.0 crowd have been singing "It's not a bubble" for years. Some of us who lived through 1.0 knew better. Not taking it seriously, not realizing a company HAS to have revenue to survive, and that VC is not a revenue stream has contributed to this meltdown. It's hubris, and the video is an example of it. Not to mention a Wall Street Journal reporter - WALL STREET JOURNAL - is hanging out drinking with the people she's supposed to be covering objectively and making stupid drunken videos. It's a massive fail on all counts.
