No, it's not dead. We all need to learn that the pie gets bigger if we all share our ideas. Shared success helps others join the success and contribute new learning from their experiences. Shared failures ditto, and the fact that we can learn from other's mistakes saves us all time and money.

What is true is that the simple methods are becoming more difficult to profit from - a low barrier to entry always means inceasing competition.

I believe the days of setting up a campaign and leaving it to pay the bills are coming to an end. If a campaign is to succeed these days, it needs constant attention and creativity. Which is rather annoying, as it means working sometimes!
