Workstations

One cannot deny that the internet has become an essential part of our daily lives, irrespective of where you find yourself and the other factors that may account for the development of an institution, government or an individual.

Research indicates that, as of 1993, the global landscape of communication through the internet was only about 1% and already 51% by the year 2001. In just about six years afterwards (2007), 97% of information was communicated via the internet.

As at 2016, Statistica reports that there has been an estimate of 3.5 billion internet users worldwide; which means that about 45 percent of the global population use the internet on a daily basis.

Asia, the most populated continent in the world obviously has the largest internet share in the world, followed by Europe and Africa with North America, Middle East, and Oceania/Australia being the least in terms of their internet share.

English Language is the commonest internet language, followed by Chinese and Korean, with South Korea having the world’s fastest internet connection (27 Mbps as of 2016). The global average internet speed stood at 6.1 Mbps in the year 2016.

The internet contain a greater amount of online information, social networking and entertainment sites, E-commerce platforms, and sharing economies. It is for this reason, this website have been initially dedicated to discuss about these three main sectors of internet usage in our daily lives.

As you can see, only three countries have their internet history in the dropdown menu of this page. And we all know that there are more than three countries in the world. Currently, the United Nations recognises a total of 197 countries, and our aim as a website is to have all these countries represented one way or the other here.

Anytime a post regarding any country’s internet usage is added to this website, we will update the details of this website. If your country is already represented, feel free to talk about another aspect of your country’s usage of the internet and email it to us. You can even talk about another country’s internet usage, provided they are all backed with facts.
