Damn, those are some crazy statistics! Number 11 is very disturbing!

CaptainHowdy · 06-03-2010, 07:27 AM

Porn is God?

Konkan · 06-03-2010, 07:52 AM

I'm guessing most of those were made up. Or just a very rough estimate at the least...

Ding!

Pay no attention to these stats, folks; they're nothing but what some members of the U.S. military would refer to as 'SWAG' -- Scientific Wild Ass Guesses.

Heh! I like SWAG, not heard that before.

U.S. military personnel have an unfair advantage when it comes to coming up with great abbreviations; virtually everything in their lexicon is eventually abbreviated.

For example, the cumbersome "Time-Phased Force Deployment Data" became TPFDD, which most personnel end up pronouncing "tip fiddle."

One of my all time favorite military innovations in terminology is the WWII era term "snafu," which stands for "Situation Normal: All Fucked Up."

This part is interesting:

Quote:

The second most astonishing number in this fact-filled tableau: Internet porn earns $4.9 billion worldwide per year. That's particularly laughable in light of the fact that sexual material on the Internet is so ubiquitous and easy to find for free. Who's paying for this stuff?

So that's how the porn business continues to thrive: It's built on the backs of people who don't know how to find stuff on the Internet.

That's 10.8 cents per user per second of viewing porn. What are the forecasts for this amount? Downtrend?

Maybe focus on selling EXPERIENCES instead of 'canned content'? See sig

Davy · 06-04-2010, 12:49 AM

There are 300 million people in the US, but yet only 40 million are said to be watching online porn regularly? What's wrong with you people?

That inforgraphic has been making the rounds.

http://www.boingboing.net/2010/06/03...cally-whe.html

This is the link to the whole and I think original graphic:

http://i.imgur.com/iBG0P.jpg

This is the text from that boingboing post:

-----------------------------------------

Today, I finally caught that infographic on Internet porn facts that's been going around like a bad itch in a delicate place. I'm a bit skeptical about how accurate it is?if you scroll to the bottom you will see that the number one source is an article in the Daily Mail. But, it did make me think about how a single soundbite statistic doesn't necessarily tell you everything you need to know to understand the big picture.

Case in point, according to said infographic, Utah has the United States' highest online porn subscription rate per thousand home broadband users. My first thought: "Heh, dirty Mormons."

But wait! The fact doesn't actually tell us that the good people of Utah consume more porn than, say, Californians. It merely tells us that Utahans are more likely to pay a regular subscription for their porn. Sure, this could be an example of religious hypocrisy caught red-handed. (Ahem.) But, it might also be something far funnier: People who are so clean-cut and law-abiding that they don't even feel comfortable illegally downloading their porn. (Or, it could just be that the citizens of Utah are more likely to not be terribly Internet savvy, in which case, as a public service, I'd like to take a moment inform them all the RedTube exists.)

The point: We have a statistic. But we don't have enough information to know what that statistic really means.

I doubt if that many regularly care watching porn sites.
