Pornography isn't as big on the Internet as you might think, according to Don McLagan, CEO of Web analytics firm Compete, who's attending PC Forum in Carlsbad, Calif., this week. Pornography pages grew by 18 percent last year, but pages accessed on the Web overall grew by 36 percent. As a result, the overall share of porn in 2005 declined from 5.5 percent of all pages flipped online to 4.5 percent.
