the point being is there is less 'need' for a pc these days.
you have such as xbox for games. this too conects to the web.
i would say a huge amount of people ONLY use facebook. and often via there mobile phone.
think this way. your a 15 year old girl who want to chat to her mates. you see the pc as a nerds toy. but a phone is cool, cheap, and you can carry it around.
most busness people of all ages seem to have an iphone.
think this way, what benafit has a website over a phone app?
before websites we had newsgroups. while these may be still around i bet hardly anyone uses them.
technoloigy has a shelf life.
you see if people buy ipads they are less likly to buy a pc, if the ipad can give them what they want.
a few years ago laptops were the thing you wanted. but now the ipad seems much better than a laptop. its portable for a start while the laptop never realy was. try sitting on a bus with a lattop. while a iphone or ipad you can much easer.
ask yopuself what the average person uses the web for.
i would say conecting to friends (ie facebook app on a phone).
this is why i think such as sex.com is not worth much. i presume they based the price presuming that websites will be more popular as years gop on. i suspect the website is dead.
think of the porn mag. i bet mant thought they would be around for ever. while some are there sales have droped.
things change.
