The trend reminds me of the adoption of electric cars. Things started out very slowly, but once the adoption takes hold it grows quickly.

    That is the same curve for almost everything that becomes mainstream. The only real difference is the length of time t takes. But everything starts out small, stays that way for a while, then some critical mass hits and it explodes. For a project to become mainstream it is really all about overcoming "the chasm" of early adopters where most projects die or get stuck in for a long time.
