    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I'm a media dude in Massachusetts, curious about the venture climate in Massachusetts. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The reports keep telling us that Massachusetts is a center for venture start-ups, but I don't think the edge has quite come off the recession here. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Still, my agency has been picking up new venture-backed clients (we specialize in start-ups.) Is everyone still out of work? What are people telling folks face-to-face? &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Greetings fellow dot-communists. Now that we seem to have cleaned up the rubble from the bubble, it may be fun to look back and laugh at the business plans that we all worked so hard at making work. Advertising dollars anyone?  
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;So go ahead, offer up the business plan and/or peculiar product offering that your dot com tried, and why it didn't work! I just today talked to a fellow tribalist who worked at a company who was making a Java application server - sold 5 units - spent $18 million - and poof. Perhaps we can all have a chuckle looking back on the exuberance of the day. After all, if we cannot learn from our mistakes then we are bound to make them again...                                                                                                                                                                                           &lt;/div&gt;
