Could it be that rates for the ads are dropping , as the advertisers realize that "hits" don't equate to "dollars" ? Once the initial fad passes , the people actually paying for net ads with CASH (as opposed to stock or other daisy-chain tie-ins), will have to see some sort of return for the money. Maybe revenues are sinking 'cause the dog just won't hunt anymore.
BTW , this analysis applies to companies that actually earn money in a business. The netdogs that use IPO money to goose each other's revenue streams will be able to play the game 'til the money runs out.
