>Closer to home, Groupon shares have also dived after the initial excitement. The brilliant idea (discounted restaurant meals of the day) has faded through replication and they need adult management. I hope they can rebound. They have been at the head of a new tech surge in River North, a formerly blighted area close to downtown Chicago.

I'm not happy with Groupon-type companies:

- Do they add value? ONLY if considered as a pure advertising play, debatable even then

- Are they sustainable? No, the underlying businesses can't keep operating at Groupon price levels.

Looks frothy to me.
