Sure..... 7 years ago I bookmarked the Hun.... now look where i'm at today - times change - yes I still trust the Hun, but i'm not visiting him on a daily basis anymore - and neither is a lot of his "bookmarkers" either.. they are leaving for other "trusted" sites, in niches that cater more to them.

It's the same thing as 15 years ago, you were forced into listening to certain types of music, and back in the 50s and 60s there were only a few genres period. Those artists made a killing because they had a captive audience, now a days, the world is your oyster and everything is served on a silver platter in just about any combination you can imagine, and if it isn't, someone out there is building it.

That's the change that the graphs really focus on, and like some have previously eluded to, the Hun hasn't changed with the times. But then again, does he really need to when his source of revenue isn't from surfers? When he loses most of his surfers and webmasters don't see signups, and stop buying his paid placements, THEN you'll see changes... until then... he probably doesn't care.
