Just a quick update on the last post. I’ve seen a variety of articles on the decline of Educational Software, but I like this one the best. I like it because the time frame represents the delta between my oldest child, who we bought software for, and my youngest, who we have never bought software for. I also like it, because I could find it. (When is the new and better search coming?) I like it mostly because it shows that kids have stopped using installed software and instead use the web for everything.

When these kids who never used installed educational software grow up to adults, do you think they are going to suddenly adapt to installed business apps? No, they are going to use Web Applications for work because that’s what they are used to. And don’t think the old guard will stop it. The old guard couldn’t force people to use main-frames when they were used to PCs.

Just one more reminder, All Apps will be Web Apps.
