I like this. It's similar to selling shovels during the goldrush (not that this is a goldrush, but you get the metaphor).
Let's not cheer this nonsense. This could be a tabloid article about "Showbizz revival spawns businesses to services stars".
I mean StackExchange as a startup to serve startups? Can't be serious.
"The most since 2008". Not a really convincing figure in my opinion. The most since the market tanked only means a recovery is underway.
The part I like the most is that first paragraph, none of whats listed is what the companies do. New Relic - app monitoring. Stack exchange - Online communities. Dot cloud - app deployment.
Cool. PG has been suggesting a startup for startups for a while now.
