The late 90s was really a different time. There were job ads for tech companies that pretty much read. "If you know how to type we want you!" So the talent pool was very different. There's a lot more tied to tech and software these days then the late 90s when the web was new. Just think of it this way. GE in the 90s was still a manufacturing first company. Now they are trying to re-brand as a software first company. I wouldn't worry about a ghost town in silicon valley type bust like the late 90's. You might see funding dry up but its not going to be like it was. I hope not at least
