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.
