Neither am I. It feels like the dotcom in the sense that people will be spitting out new apps all overt the place. Down the line they will have problems maintaining them (and will say it's not core to their business) and they will revert to SaaS. However i expect the SaaS apps to have super low margins compared to today. Instead of 20-30% it will be 5-7% and the companies will be a shadow of themselves.


Right so teams will shrink and we'll have more "bespoke" SaaS with more small biz services making enough to support maybe 5-10?

Sounds just like the bespoke software product companies and consultants out there.


Thats my guess and I think this might happen in other domains like games as well.
