Silicon Valley Is Over, Says Silicon Valley

New York Times

About a dozen venture capitalists recently took a bus tour through the Midwest, and a funny thing happened: They caught the heartland bug.

But they did not go to Ft. Madison, Iowa, my hometown. People have left there and they are not going back. It reached its peak in the Fifties and has been going down ever since. 

This is not for lack of building space, there is plenty of that. But the people there are not eager to advance. They are stuck, and they like it that way.
