Asia dominates the Internet

I was caught by surprise when checking some Internet usage statistics on my favourite source of country comparison data, Internet World Stats. I realise that China is already #2 in the world to the US and that India has rushed past the 40 million user level. It hadn't quite dawned on me though, just how far ahead of the rest of the world Asia already is.

And, given the source of so much of the technology and thinking behind the web, who would answer 3rd place when asked to place N. America in the world rankings? Not me.
