I was just reading fast company magazine and these stats stood out

Difference in people using email from 2009 to 2010
Seniors up 28%
teens down 59%

89% of all email sent is spam

Facebook users in 2004 1mil
In 2010 600 million

Aol users in 2004 23 million
In 2010 4 million

Whatever is hot today can quickly be replaced especially if the functionalty of it is replaced with something less annoying or more user friendly. I would guess most teens are communicating over social networks because there is far less hassle. No spam, no junk, no remembering an email addy. Yesterday when the sale was announced more than twice as many contacted me by fb msg over email.

There is always opportunity and now more than ever you can get a project to 1 million users faster than ever and you can drop back to zero faster than ever. You have to stay sharp.

It will be interesting to see if tubes evolve or if they stay stagnant the way paysites did.
