Re:Are we in a bubble? Your thoughts

In this instance if we consider the variable the number of investments being made into internet startups are we seeing bubble like behaviour? Are valuations much higher now (artificially so - post youtube etc) than before? Is this leading to herd-like behaviour both in entrepreneurs looking to create opportunity and investors chasing deals?

There might be some deals going on in anticipation of a bubble. Sort of hedge deals being made to guarantee a spot on the leading edge of some hypothetical bubble. But I don't think all the deals fall into that category and many of them are pretty legitimate investments and at fair prices.
