Reply to are there more of us? or can you just see more of us?

So im having this discussion with a large group of djs on my radio station today, and im actually going to turn it into a huge LIVE call in discussion that we are going to broadcast shortly, with live callers and people answering questions in the chatroom. Now that aside, i wanted to post the base of the question here on DJTT and see that take you guys have on it.

A line in one of the comments from one from one of my djs was
but im not so sure this is an accurate statement.
I tend to look at things in a slightly different angle most times so i have to ask here

Is there a rise in the number of djs?

Or is it that, Now, because
finding information on someone
having the ability to PLACE your information in front of a larger mass of people
and the multitude of sites that djs join have grown
is it that there are more djs now?

or is it just easier to find us?

Lets facing it. Djing is NOT a new thing. its been going on since hell, my father was a dj and im now 39!!!
(Yea! I said im 39! what you gonna do about it sunny boy?!)

i found out when he was young, he too was trying to mix music
Tape to tape
and record to record
there were even djs that would do it 8 trak to 8 track
and 45 to 45
Splicing speaker wires together to try and make a type of cross fader effect when they didnt even exist yet

so what do you believe has happened here?
