Thoughts after the first Top Quality ContentTM summit

falling, oh yes I'm fallingLast weekend, the steering committee for the Top Quality ContentTM Group held an emergency session to discuss the current market situation (you may have heard: hi-tech companies are having layoffs left right and centre; e-business solutions companies are going tits-up; the web, it turns out, isn't what the MBA clowns said it was. It's been in all the papers).

"Oh crap! Oh crap! Oh crap!" This from the top executive from the strongsmell.com team. We bought him a cocktail and got back to business.

"It's what we've been saying all along -- the web clowns and MBA jokers have always been full of it," said one delegate from Pigdump. "They've been spewing air and frickin' jargon for 3 years now and finally FINALLY their clients aren't buying it anymore."

"Oh crap! Oh crap! Oh crap! Where does this leave us?"

Finally, after many more cocktails (boy those strongsmell.com kids can suck 'em back!), the founder, CEO, COO and birthday boy from Spoothe put it all in perspective for us:

"Bring it on, I say. Let the fall continue. The web wankers will continue to spiral down, the boom will be over, another depression on the way, tumbleweeds rolling through the empty condos in Silicon Valley, Silicon Alley and Silicon North. You'll be able to buy a BMW SUV for a song, my friends. And after the fallout, what will be left? Nothing but the Top Quality ContentTM portal! That's right, like the indefatigable cockroaches in a post-nuclear world, Spoothe, Pigdump and strongsmell.com will live on and on! TQCTM will be a beacon, leading the confused masses..."

"Oh crap! Oh crap! Oh crap!"

"...back to a simpler, saucier, grammatically correct landscape where people can raise their children without fear."

So we all felt good about ourselves, bought another super-sized tray of cocktails, and toasted the mighty cockroach until they threw us out of the bar at 1:00.
