ughh there is a difference between making money and making money doing cool things. Joel makes moeney by doing really boring things really well. Web2.0 stuff makes me want to yawn.

The interesting future lies more in the fields of Machine Learning, Computer Vision, 3D graphics, Bioinformatics, and what not. Things which are not trivial to do and for which now slowly and steadily we have the computing power to make it happen on the standard desktops.

trying to make money using web2.0 type stuff is like lottery i think. There are so many people trying to do it.
