Europe growth in internet users was very fast and not so unexpected. Internet was quicker than teletext, which was a text on screen information system in use on UK TV. Since then people have been used to sharing information. Now thw internet is in full demand everywhere and anywhere. Even the new international train stations at St Pancras, Ebbsfleet and Ashford have had to install wifi internet access for those business users working and travelling by train to Europe. Mobile internet has probably been the biggest uphill battle as the mobile and phone companies try to cloud free internet sharing and sell expensive broadband packages to the rich and manic technophobics. I just hope that time adventually catchup and I can download a Mc Donalds Happy Meal, until then I won't be impressed. These trends in my opinion go with the weather, colder it gets less you want to go out, more time you spend online? Just a theory.

Very interesting fact on North Korea. I wonder why thats the case. Got any ideas?

Also a very good point seb. I searched up the population of Oceania and it is approximitly 34m in population. Perhaps it was ment to say 11 times in Oceania, but that doesent make sense either.

Thank you for the statistics, they have helped me out a considable amount.

Gee whiz, I don’t know how you managed to add 13 million Australians to the world in point 12.

~34 million people is the population of Oceania, not Australia.

The statistics reveals Africa’s meagre 3% participation in internet usage. This could be attributed to poor infrastructural facilities, high cost of internet access and others. The level of awareness is high and the desire is equally high, especially in Nigeria. How can the figure improve.

You could be right, the penetration of Internet users in Aussie is high. I’ve lived there for 2 years, in Brisbane. Broadband there was not too bad.

Interesting stats. If I’m reading the data right, it seems Australia has the second highest per capita rate of internet usage in the world. So much for the beach lifestyle hey? (I’m in Sydney myself ;)
