Talking point: Are we in danger of creating another dotcom bubble?

The past few weeks have seen some serious action from some of the web's biggest players. From Google's attempt to take on everybody and everything, to eBay's multibillion purchase of Skype, the heat is on.

The way we're is more than a little reminiscent of the late 90s, when internet fever was something new, exciting and - perhaps - a little too much for some people to handle. But some say we're not in the same place now: the world has grown up, and technology has grown up with it.

But what are your thoughts: are we in danger of seeing a repeat of the dotcom bubble? Are we older and wiser now, or will history repeat itself?

Leave your opinions in the comments, please.
