I think a lot of people in this thread are merchants? I'm an affiliate and this is a great business to be in. Online spending will only continue to go up each year. You always see articles about this and somebody posting them. It would be like me predicting each year the the U.S. population is going to increase again this year. Of course it is, same with ecommerce. Each year we have people getting their first computer, getting online for the first time, buying stuff online the first time and that will just continue to go up. And like what's already been mentioned, the generation coming up now is a very tech savvy generation who know their way around computers and will have no problem spending their money online. It's a beautiful thing :)
