Mass audience has come to the ienrtnet. I think this is a point that bears repeating. Most users in 1990 were probably still computer-science types who were willing and able to use things like FTP and Telnet. Now that even people like my great-aunt are on the Net, it's clear the user base has expanded to the less tech-savvy.Of course those folks will opt for the simplest functions (e.g. video). As a result, I'd be very interested in seeing a version that showed the absolute number of 1990 users vs. the absolute number of 2010 users. I would bet that the early adopters are still using FTP et al, so that the *percentage* change we see above can be largely attributed to the less sophisticated 2010 user base.And my own personal pet peeve: why the shadows? Sheesh.
