I've not read Boo Hoo - although my old flatmate who works in capital financing thoroughly recommended it to me, think he read it about 4 times in total now! Along the same lines is a book called "dot.con", I forget who it's by. It's good, and covers a few interesting stories at the height of the bubble.

You're gonna love Boo Hoo - it's one of the most fascinating (and most scary) dotcom stories I've read. A great insight into how crazy things were during the first dotcom boom :-)
