Use the web, reach hundreds of millions...
The Sydney Morning Herald Reports:
The global number of Internet users is expected to reach 655 million by the end of this year compared to 500 million at the end of last year, according to estimates in a report released by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) yesterday.
Asia apparently added another 21 million in 2001. And developing countries accounted for nearly a third of new Internet users worldwide last year. ECommerce, for pretty obvious reasons, is concentrated in the West (well, dur): The United States has just under 45 per cent of the world share in e-commerce revenues, while western Europe has just under 25 per cent and Japan just under 15 per cent.
