80% of people are consumers, 20% are producers. Throughout history, that percentage has remained more or less constant. I don't think the next generation's usage of the internet is going differ much from the current generation. 80% of people are going to use it for the information streaming to them. Those of us who use it for other reasons will most likely retreat back to the non-web internet, like IRC, as a way of avoiding the consumer masses. Or the consumer internet may evolve beyond http to a network of peer to peer native mobile apps all streaming data back and forth to each other, no web server needed.
