Study Finds Casual Games Still Beating YouTube, MySpace
According to a new report by Parks Associates, gaming is still champion of online activities, with 34 percent of adult users playing games weekly compared to 29 percent using sites like YouTube and 19 percent using social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook.
I really think that portals like newgrounds and GGE are the way forward for indie developers, as well as innovations like browser-run GM games.
