Tech IPO prices exploded and subsequent trading prices rose to dizzying heights as the stock prices became disconnected from the traditional metrics of revenue and profits. Startups with huge burn rates – building leases, staff, PR and advertising – ran out of money. Some have labeled this period as irrational exuberance.

For example, I don’t think anything resembling “internet marketing” design is credible (big red text, highlighted words, blinking arrows, autoplay video, etc). This design is usually reserved for information products that don’t offer much value. Bad Web Design. Web design matters. Blinking banners. Autoplay animation.
