As more and more people get internet-enabled phones, fast delivery of the data/content becomes crucial, both
for the end-user who wants the answer and wants it now, and for the mobile phone operators who need the data

Basic, simple, clean and few-or-no graphics websites will be those used most often. Flash and Video will
just be for "amusement" websites not business websites.
