If you have an interest in venture capital and/or web 2.0 you should find today’s WallStrip interview with Fred Wilson interesting. He talks about how it felt to strike it rich when Yahoo bought GeoCities, his thoughts on Jim Cramer (Fred was an investor in TheStreet.com back in the day) and whether Web 2.0 is a bubble or not.
We’re set for a slightly higher opening today. Bulls resurging or just some nice upticks to short into? We’ll see…
