A lot of web 2.0 success stories had fathers (from a technology and feature perspective) that failed in the dot com bust. Part of their failure was that they were too far ahead for their time. The masses weren't familiar with some key components yet, or weren't comfortable with certain aspects, etc. I was thinking the exact thing.

I'd be willing to bet that a lot of great ideas / companies aren't getting noticed simply because there are too many companies out there right now. In addition, there are a lot of very simple Web 2.0 sites out there that only do one thing; bundling these sites with others could produce a platform with tremendous synergies. Thoughts?
