The Dean Bubble
Posted by Gregg at 10:16 AM in Information Industry Score another one for the Internet. Howard Dean became the early front runner but has since fizzled once we've had the chance to look under the covers. The internet creates instant buzz with the appearance of credibility because of its inherent ability to easily publish and reach a large number of people quickly. However, Dean's rise and now, all but complete, fall is reminiscent of other internet fueled memes. Remember eToys, WebVan, Jonathan Lebed and Razorfish - all beneficiaries of the speed and hype of the net but lacking the staying power required for the long haul. Watch out when the RNC wakes up!
