Om Malik has a great analysis of the current memes and rumblings around The Myth, Reality & Future of Web 2.0.

I actually like the term ‘the Live Web’. 

OM draws the analogy that Yahoo and AOL are introducing mainstream consumers to Web 2.0 in “Tikka” sized chunks.  In typical Om fashion - its briliiant.

In fail swoop to puts to silence all the clammering and complaining.  New technology takes time to gestate.

Look at how long it took for the world to accept animated ads or timeline authoring systems?  YEARS!

53,651 is a nice inner circle number - but 300k is a much nicer magic number.

Actually the number that matters is the profitable #.  The money that puts food on the table, roof over your head and a vacation - once in a while.  Everything above that is gravy.
