A major study of Web usage released today by a Canadian polling organization shows 300 million people are now wired in around the globe and that one billion will be online by 2005.
The survey, conducted by the Toronto-based Angus Reid Group, shows Canada second only to the US in terms of Web usage, but European and Japanese users lead in employing wireless Internet devices such as Web-enabled pagers and palm computers.
The study of 28,374 people in 34 countries representing a total population of 900 million, conducted at a reported cost of $1 million, suggests one billion people worldwide will be using the Internet by 2005 and as many as 150 million more people are planning to connect yet this year.
