Dot.com and Dot.bomb

The mid to late 90's saw a rise in various technology companies. Investors scrambling and dashing out money to get in on the technology boom. Any company branded as an internet company already seemed like a success even when they weren't and so investors were putting in their money into companies that looked more solid than they actually were.

Within the tech industries, there was huge acquisitions, and fierce competitions and in a technology industry, companies have to adapt speedily to stay alive; something several companies failed to do. Andrew Fry illustrated this idea with dinosaurs representing some very prominent companies including Compserv, yahoo, AOL etc. Just like the dinosaurs, the companies that did not adapt to the changes were wiped. Unlike yahoo! the crocodile lol.

Anyway, on a more serious note, i love crocodiles because they always look like they are smiling and happy to see you. Check this out:



GENIUS.

This serves as a note to tech company founders like us the students, technology is always evolving and we should always be quick to change and adapt as required..
