Internet Usage in Europe

Thanks to an excellent eMarketer newsletter article, Russian Online Population Explosion, I had important data to import into Many-Eyes.com.

Europe's 2007 Internet usage by % of population is 37%.

Russia's % of population is only 12%, but is expected to increase to 43% by 2012.

Growth Potential of Internet Users

Thanks to data by eMarketer and visualization by Many-Eyes, we can see the growth potential of Internet users. In 2006, the population penetration of the U.S. (63.6%) was over 5 times that of China (10.2%).

In 2011, China will have an 18% population penetration and is expected to exceed the number of Internet users in the U.S. by 40 million. From 2006 to 2011, China's Internet Users increase 84% from 133.5 million to 245.5 million.
