Who will be the next hot tech company? As seen with recent IPOs — such as from Splunk (NASDAQ:SPLK), Zynga (NASDAQ:ZNGA) and Yelp (NYSE:YELP) — investors are getting excited about technology again. No doubt, the Facebook IPO will be a huge boost. Just look at the media attention with the company’s $1 billion purchase of Instagram.
