i don't think it'll happen because most people suck at marketing. so another 100,000 webmasters who make galleries no one would every click through, sites you can't even find your way in and free sites with such bad content that no link list will post them probably won't hurt most of us here much.

most of the last 100 people i saw come into the industry either quit because they couldn't make money or keep doing it as a hobby. very few have even made $500 a month after a year.

besides, we can keep microniching and microniching - every time you're close to the only site with a niche, you're gonna make sales...
