This link was posted on Facebook via Junnette Abrera. It’s basically an infographic of internet statistics that I found really interesting, educational, and entertaining. While these stats are mostly from the United States, you can’t help but marvel at how fast the world has changed because of the internet. The stats the caught my attention the most were the 7 hours spent monthly by users on Facebook (highest) and 80% of all e-mail being spam! Anyway, check it all out after the break.

Some thoughts:
- 26.3% only use internet on their phones. This isn’t a bad thing. It means that there’s much more room for growth! The mobile internet industry will definitely boom as more high-tech phones become more affordable.
- Filipinos are 2 hours shy of the average monthly hours spent on Facebook. We’re at 5 hours while those in the US spend 7 hours.
- 95% of music downloaded in the US is pirated. Here in the Philippines it’s probably 99.9%, hahaha!
- In the US 2/3 of searches come from Google. Last time I checked Yahoo still has a significant part of the market share here in the Philippines. They have a pretty aggressive marketing, sales, and social media team based locally so I won’t be surprised if they grow that market share even more in the coming months/years.
What do you guys think of the stats above?
this is also an interesting infographic that will supplement that internet infographic

In research , most of the Filipinos do not use mobile to online because of expensive. We wish it charges cheaper in phone online usage package, so that Philippines may not only top 6 of Faceook, and may improve o top 5. which able those 93 percent of people to make it 99 percent of online usage people online using facebook.
