Do companies and industries become irrelevant?

Bloggers! Earn $2cpm or more!

For a long time I just wanted to sit back and watch as some of the companies I hated became irrelevant. Sure enough after awhile Blog Networks became the fad that was passing and Web 2.0 over took with a firestorm. Then all the blog network watchers also became irrelevant. Thus the irony of the web going full circle.

Do you ever find yourself becoming irrelevant amidst all the noise on the internet? Is your company stagnant and overwhelmed by all the voices that feed it what you assume is relevant information? Don’t worry I quit checking my email in early 2004 so if you’ve tried to contact me since then it’s pretty much pointless.

A list of 7 companies/industires who I have yet to figure out their relevance.
1. Celebrity Bloggers
I seriously don’t understand the mainstream obsession with pop stars. Will someone please explain it for me? Especially the networks of celebrity blogs. Ugh. Why was I so stupid to try and create this jibberish at one time.

Does anyone really care about Web 2.0?

I wake up every morning, or occassionally afternoon and try to find inspiration to blog about Web 2.0 and the blogopshere. I’ve been pining away trying to digg up something interesting. Instead I find myself being inspired to plan web apps,themes, and community growth objectives. But what the heck is the future of web 2.0? Does anyone care? I find more and more people getting less interested in the internet in the real world. It’s great for video, music, and social networking but people dont care about all the nonsense that us tech geeks drool over.

My parents don’t get web 2.0. Neithr do I. I’m lost in confusion at the lack of innovation in web 2.0. Does anyone have a passion for it anymore? I know I lost mine. I could care less about Trumpr,grumpr, or laughtr. All I want is the web to be functional and highly community oriented. If it doesnt work I want nothing to do with it.

In the meantime I, the original cowboy has returned to find inspiration again. Even in the form of reaking havoc on the techosphere.
