Any predictions for 2009?

[Hell Puppy]

I think the economy gets worse before it gets better.

I think our new President will face an international challenge to go along with his homeland economic problems.

I expect all of this to continue to impact adult industry. Traffic will continue to skyrocket to sites willing to give a lot away, conversions will continue to plunge.

I think we'll see at least one major processing challenge as a result of the financial industry being squeezed.

Exodus and consolidation will continue.

Looks to be a bad year for affiliate reps and the like unfortunately. I see lots of businesses having to scale back and conserve cache. ROI will be scrutinized more closely.

Affiliate reps likely have to become affiliates themselves. I see more traffic generation coming in house.

Show attendance likely takes a beating. 200 attendees will be a big show. With lack of sponsor dollars, 4-5 shows may fold.

Flash video and silverlight come of age in adult.
