Social Media Bubble?

We all learnt about the South Sea Bubble at school and not long ago, we’ve had the tech stocks bubble. This is video is a cynical take on all the excitement about social media.

What I find fun is that I’ve blogged about a number of the people and applications on Fusion View and ZenGuide. I’ve also visited my cousin when they were in Palo Alto for a time, the heart of Silicon Valley and seen the kinds of houses mentioned in the video.

Just when you thought the property market is getting overheated and must surely be heading for a crash, here is a website where you can buy and sell virtual versions of real property, Monopoly style, and make real money doing it.
clipped from www.weblo.com
Weblo Properties offer you the exciting opportunity of owning absolutely any property that exists in the real world - well, a cyber copy of it, that is! Buy and sell cities, states, airports, historical places, buildings, even your home. But you have to be the first to get it on Weblo! Own cities and states and you’ll become the Mayor or Governor, you might even become the President of your country. Get paid for advertising revenues generated from your properties.

=>> California is sold for $53,000

=>> The White House is going for £10m.

=>> At the time of writing, England is up for grabs.

=>> There’s an auction section as well just to crank things up to a fever pitch…

If you do go and buy anything at Weblo, do come back and let me know and I’ll feature your property on ZenGuide.
