EMarketer says user-generated content isn't a fad any more: "The number of user-generated content creators will rise from 77 million in 2007 to 108 million in 2012. The number of consumers of user-generated content will increase from 94 million in 2007 to 130 million in 2012." The similarity of these numbers would indicate that the majority of people who are consuming user-generated content are the ones creating it. Still, eMarketer sees ad revenues for the category exceeding $800 million by 2012.
