Web Development Game a la Cookie Counter

This one is kind of a brain dump but here we go:

Clicks are visits
visits bring in ad revenue
visits cost bandwidth (KB), bandwidth costs increase as time goes on (sites get bigger)
Ad revenue allows investment in skills

KB of Average Web Page Size keeps increasing from all these new technologies that keep coming out: video, audio, pictures, web fonts, HDPi screens
