Where have all the advertising dollars gone?

The Pew Internet and American Life Project just release a new report about online classified ads websites. Use of these sites—Craigslist is the most prominent example—has increased like crazy since 2005. Pew correlates this surge with the drastic drop in advertising revenue at conventional print sources, like newspapers.
