And growth continues in online travel too….

U.S. Non-Travel E-Commerce Spending By Consumers Increased 23 Percent in Q3 2006

Although the travel category shows lower growth figures than others, it comes from a much larger base as it remains by far the largest single category online and will continue to be for quite a long time. In 2006 total sales will exceed $ 70 billion and should hit the $ 100 billion mark in 2010. Quite spectacular when only in 1995 it was zero!
