The crazy thing is that less competition has not increased sales... All the opposite.
If you want a thermometer, just check the forums... GFY has 50% less activity and less active users at any given time, than in 2006.
Videos Board and ThinkReel are COMPLETELY DEATH.
Time to move on, guys.

that's the thing... not sure on the % numbers, but you're pretty much right I'm afraid
all the forums have been pretty much more active 2005-2006
just those who left, won't post anymore, and those who are still here, half of them are seeing a huge decline but are still doing this, while the other half are probably growing, because they are doing the right things (if you don't grow, you're in decline usually)
so when we do polls on GFY, lots of people are saying they are growing each year, but if you'd make the same poll among those who were here in 2005, 60% of them would be gone already I think
oh and another thing - all the programs are usually still saying "We are having record numbers all the time"...... but as I pointed out a while ago, there's a HUGEEE decrease in the number of new programs opened.... that should tell you something as well...
