All Your Base Are Belong To China

Well.. not yet, but it’s just a question of when.

China is the second largest Internet user behind the US. China has 137 million users, while the US has 211 million users. The third closest is Japan with 86 million users.

Those numbers are misleading though because 70% of the US population are Internet users. However, only 10% of China is on the Internet!

If you added the population sizes for each of the top 20 Internet using countries, China and India account for about half the population. But, these two countries weigh in with only a mere 16% of total Internet population.

Change creates opportunity, and opportunities don’t come along very often ;)
