Continuing our ongoing meme of deja vu, the Financial Times has an interview with Steve Jurvetson of DraperFisherJurvetson titled Why nanotechnology is next big thing. Its starting to feel like 2001 again.
As wed expect, there is nothing too outlandish, and the interview is more concerned with technology in general and the parallels between nanotech and the internet. New business models based on asking what property of matter can you take advantage of that you just couldn’t have before?” will be the ones that generate real value, just as the internet opened up new ways of doing business.
Talking of parallels, was there ever an internet industry?
