As from history, We all know there been lot of atheist around the world all over the time.
But still there something totally difference about "New Atheism" moment started by Dan, Christopher, Sam Harris, Richard. Which has got more people than any other atheist following.
Lot of people have different reason for this, Some say, Because of violence caused, Books, Growth in science and technology.
Personally, I think, its because of Internet, As we know, Internet is a place where Lot of memes(informations) can be stored, and can be accessed by anyone at anytime at fraction of second. Books reach very limited people, and there only certain amount of copies, were as a video on youtube is different, you can watch millions times, and million people can watch at one time. Unlike people living sheltered life, everyone can or get an small idea, what its like to be another country with other religion, what are people like.
Youtube has created a another revolutions, since lot of people are posting new videos, its even spreading very very fast. some say it take about 200 years to overcome religion, but, i feel it doesn't takes more than 50 years. As new generations starts follow internet more than their text books, check answer for each question on internet rather than asking crackpot religions parents, or grand fathers, they will start applying critical thinking, this will obviously lead to rational thinking, we make him Atheist.
As per my experience, I have became atheist with help of internet. As we know google is biggest internet search engine, It has implemented search suggestions based on what people are looking more for, Based on Search suggestions, well i don't have to tell, Just look for yourself.
And you can also see which religion has better image in world view ;)
