Dot-com lot

[Bookrat]

>From an article in today's Salon ("Dot-com culture clash"):

'"You're starting to hear, 'Oh, that's a dot-com lot' where you see an
expensive house torn down to make room for a bigger one," says a local
politician.'

Living as I do in Silicon Valley, I am surprised not to have heard that
term here.
