Let's play a fun prediction: I ask HN readers what will be the page size of NYTimes.com in 10 years? Or 20 years?

Want to bet 100 MB? 1 GB? Is it unthinkable?

20 years ago, a 49 MB home page was unthinkable.

In 10 years - 100MB In 20 years - 20MB

I think there'll continue to be growth in page sizes, but then maybe we'll consider efficiency, or the NYTimes shuts down and the 20MB page will be the liquidators selling the domain. Maybe we don't even use domains by then as everything is on an app.
