Perhaps more Web 2.0 or Wireless Web-centric companies will surface. Maybe the video, social networking and related online advertising buzz will also reach saturation and start to subside. We'll have to wait and see. I'm looking forward to the next SXSW Interactive Festival -- held in Austin, Texas -- because it's a good indicator of the next wave of online trends.
